Book Synopsis Methodology for a New Microeconomics (Routledge Revivals) by : Lawrence A. Boland
Download or read book Methodology for a New Microeconomics (Routledge Revivals) written by Lawrence A. Boland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, this title argues that the successful development of a new microeconomics requires a deeper understanding of methodological individualism and its role in stability analysis. Lawrence Boland expounds a critique of neoclassical models, which, he contends, often fail to include an explicit stability analysis. He demonstrates that much of the sophisticated theoretical literature over the past thirty years can be understood as ad hoc attempts to overcome the deficiencies of such models in the absence of cogent stability analyses. In conclusion, he explains the need to update the theory taught at universities, and to develop a truly individualist version of microeconomics that is consistent with the methodological principles of major neoclassical models. An important contribution to economic methodology, this work is a highly valuable resource for all students and teachers of economics at the undergraduate level.

Book Synopsis The Methodology of Economic Model Building (Routledge Revivals) by : Lawrence A. Boland
Download or read book The Methodology of Economic Model Building (Routledge Revivals) written by Lawrence A. Boland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major methodological task for modern economists has been to establish the testability of models. Too often, however, methodological assumptions can make a model virtually impossible to test even under ideal conditions, yet few theorists have examined the requirements and problems of assuring testability in economics. In The Methodology of Economic Model Building, first published in 1989, Lawrence Boland presents the results of a research project that spanned more than twenty years. He examines how economists have applied the philosophy of Karl Popper, relating methodological debates about falsifiability to wider discussions about the truth status of models in natural and social sciences. He concludes that model building in economics reflects more the methodological prescriptions of the economist Paul Samuelson than Popper’s ‘falsificationism’. This title will prove invaluable to both students and researchers, and represents a substantial contribution to debates about the scientific status of economics.

Book Synopsis Economic Methodology and Freedom to Choose (Routledge Revivals) by : Patrick O'Sullivan
Download or read book Economic Methodology and Freedom to Choose (Routledge Revivals) written by Patrick O'Sullivan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-07-26 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1987, Professor O'Sullivan's work provides an in depth philosophical examination of the foundations of method in Economics and other human sciences. The argument is unabashedly dialectical in the great Socratic-Platonic tradition, and the reissue will be very welcome to all students of methodology, in particular those students of economic methodology seeking a refreshing alternative to yet more mathematical game playing. In an age dominated and perhaps to an extent perplexed by an ultimately non-committal postmodernism the book provides a root and branch critique of the epistemological relativism which must lie at the root of the whole post-modernist approach; and in reasserting the fundamental importance not only for the methods of science but also for European civilisation of the pursuit of truth it takes a stance which is very much against the tide of the times. A heterodox perspective is also provided and defended in detail regarding the real nature of economic methodology whereby it is shown that Economics epitomises a teleological mode of explanation which is significantly different from the efficient causal modes of explanation of the natural sciences. In fact Economics is the ultimate subjectivist/interpretative discipline in the methodological sense of Max Weber and Alfred Schutz, a fact which has only been recognised (and welcomed) in the Austrian school of Economics.
Book Synopsis New Directions in Economic Methodology by : Roger Backhouse
Download or read book New Directions in Economic Methodology written by Roger Backhouse and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 404 pages.

Book Synopsis Essays in Economic Theory (Routledge Revivals) by : Vincent Crawford
Download or read book Essays in Economic Theory (Routledge Revivals) written by Vincent Crawford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays in Economic Theory, first published in 1983, combines two essays on game theory and its applications in economics. The first, "Learning Behavior and the Noncooperative Equilibrium", considers whether an adaptive justification, like those commonly available for the optimization models frequently employed elsewhere in economics, can be found for the Nash noncooperative equilibrium. The second essay, "A Game of Fair Division", was motivated by the desire to find attractive methods for solving allocation problems and bargaining disputes that are simple enough to provide useful alternatives to existing methods. It studies in detail one such simple method: the classical "divide-and-choose" procedure. This book will be of interest to students of economics.

Book Synopsis Elements of Cost-Benefit Analysis (Routledge Revivals) by : E. J. Mishan
Download or read book Elements of Cost-Benefit Analysis (Routledge Revivals) written by E. J. Mishan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-24 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, which was first published in 1972, is not a collection of case-studies in cost-benefit analysis, of which there had been already several in use employing techniques of varying degrees of sophistication. Nor is it a manual of instruction with particular orientation for less developed counties, such as those produced under the auspices of the U.N. and the O.E.C.D. What this volume does attempt is to introduce the student of economics to the logic and the concepts used in cost-benefit analysis.
Book Synopsis Resistance to Change in the Soviet Economic System (Routledge Revivals) by : Jan Winiecki
Download or read book Resistance to Change in the Soviet Economic System (Routledge Revivals) written by Jan Winiecki and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1991, this book uses a property rights perspective to analyse why there is such widespread resistance to change in the Soviet Economic System. Many within the ruling stratum benefit considerably from their positions, particularly in terms of access to goods and services. In an original conclusion Jan Winiecki argues that a cost-effective way of removing the resistance of the parasitic ruling stratum would be a system of compensatory payments.
