Quiet Revolution in Welfare Economics

Více o knize

The book critiques traditional welfare theory while proposing a new framework that integrates recent advancements in microeconomic theory. Authors Robin Hahnel and Michael Albert emphasize the need to revise the "welfare paradigm" to better understand the interplay between individual and social rationality. They explore concepts like labor processes, externalities, and public goods, extending Pareto optimality to dynamic scenarios. Their findings challenge conventional economic beliefs and pave the way for deeper analysis of private versus public enterprises and market versus central planning dynamics.
