Book Synopsis Principles of Economic Sociology by : Richard Swedberg
Download or read book Principles of Economic Sociology written by Richard Swedberg and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-08 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last fifteen years have witnessed an explosion in the popularity, creativity, and productiveness of economic sociology, an approach that traces its roots back to Max Weber. This important new text offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of economic sociology. It also advances the field theoretically by highlighting, in one analysis, the crucial economic roles of both interests and social relations. Richard Swedberg describes the field's critical insights into economic life, giving particular attention to the effects of culture on economic phenomena and the ways that economic actions are embedded in social structures. He examines the full range of economic institutions and explicates the relationship of the economy to politics, law, culture, and gender. Swedberg notes that sociologists too often fail to properly emphasize the role that self-interested behavior plays in economic decisions, while economists frequently underestimate the importance of social relations. Thus, he argues that the next major task for economic sociology is to develop a theoretical and empirical understanding of how interests and social relations work in combination to affect economic action. Written by an author whose name is synonymous with economic sociology, this text constitutes a sorely needed advanced synthesis--and a blueprint for the future of this burgeoning field.

Book Synopsis Social Economics by : Gary Stanley Becker
Download or read book Social Economics written by Gary Stanley Becker and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economists assume that people make choices based on their preferences and their budget constraints. The preferences and values of others play no role in the standard economic model. This feature has been sharply criticized by other social scientists, who believe that the choices people make are also conditioned by social and cultural forces. Economists, meanwhile, are not satisfied with standard sociological and anthropological concepts and explanations because they are not embedded in a testable, analytic framework. In this book, Gary Becker and Kevin Murphy provide such a framework by including the social environment along with standard goods and services in their utility functions. These extended utility functions provide a way of analyzing how changes in the social environment affect people's choices and behaviors. More important, they also provide a way of analyzing how the social environment itself is determined by the interactions of individuals. Using this approach, the authors are able to explain many puzzling phenomena, including patterns of drug use, how love affects marriage patterns, neighborhood segregation, the prices of fine art and other collectibles, the social side of trademarks, the rise and fall of fads and fashions, and the distribution of income and status.

Download or read book Principles written by Ray Dalio and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times Bestseller “Significant...The book is both instructive and surprisingly moving.” —The New York Times Ray Dalio, one of the world’s most successful investors and entrepreneurs, shares the unconventional principles that he’s developed, refined, and used over the past forty years to create unique results in both life and business—and which any person or organization can adopt to help achieve their goals. In 1975, Ray Dalio founded an investment firm, Bridgewater Associates, out of his two-bedroom apartment in New York City. Forty years later, Bridgewater has made more money for its clients than any other hedge fund in history and grown into the fifth most important private company in the United States, according to Fortune magazine. Dalio himself has been named to Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. Along the way, Dalio discovered a set of unique principles that have led to Bridgewater’s exceptionally effective culture, which he describes as “an idea meritocracy that strives to achieve meaningful work and meaningful relationships through radical transparency.” It is these principles, and not anything special about Dalio—who grew up an ordinary kid in a middle-class Long Island neighborhood—that he believes are the reason behind his success. In Principles, Dalio shares what he’s learned over the course of his remarkable career. He argues that life, management, economics, and investing can all be systemized into rules and understood like machines. The book’s hundreds of practical lessons, which are built around his cornerstones of “radical truth” and “radical transparency,” include Dalio laying out the most effective ways for individuals and organizations to make decisions, approach challenges, and build strong teams. He also describes the innovative tools the firm uses to bring an idea meritocracy to life, such as creating “baseball cards” for all employees that distill their strengths and weaknesses, and employing computerized decision-making systems to make believability-weighted decisions. While the book brims with novel ideas for organizations and institutions, Principles also offers a clear, straightforward approach to decision-making that Dalio believes anyone can apply, no matter what they’re seeking to achieve. Here, from a man who has been called both “the Steve Jobs of investing” and “the philosopher king of the financial universe” (CIO magazine), is a rare opportunity to gain proven advice unlike anything you’ll find in the conventional business press.

The text concludes with examples of how to expand upon core material, introducing the perspectives of feminist and ecological economics. This book will be of great importance to students new to economics and is ideal for use on single-semester Principles courses or as a primer on economics courses in other settings.

Book Synopsis Principles of Social Economics by : George Gunton
Download or read book Principles of Social Economics written by George Gunton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Social Economics: Inductively Considered and Practically Applied, With Criticisms on Current Theories If there is one subject that should be more attractive to the student and more inspiring to the citizen than another, it is that of social economics, because it deals directly and exclusively with the influences and conditions which control all human welfare. It is through a knowledge of the principles and laws of human economics that we are enabled to make nature contribute to man's comfort and luxury by substituting abundance for poverty, freedom for slavery, peace for war, intelligence and morality for ignorance and brutality; in short, a civilization of democracy and culture for one of despotism and degradation. Whenever the science which should furnish the key to nature's bounties and the light to human progress becomes unattractive to the student and repulsive to the average citizen, we may be assured that there is something fundamentally amiss with the conception and treatment of the subject. This is precisely the case with political economy to-day. Instead of being the beacon-light of industrial and social affairs, - the source to which all may turn for safe instruction and hopeful guidance, - it is the "dismal science" which students avoid, statesmen and capitalists disregard, citizens ignore, and laborers discredit. Why is a science so dreary and pessimistic, which by its very nature should be fascinating and hopeful? The obvious answer is, that it fails to fulfill its function as a science of industrial welfare and social advancement. On nearly all fundamental questions affecting the production and distribution of wealth its doctrines are both uncertain and inconsistent.
