Título : Nudge Theory in Action : Behavioral Design in Policy and Markets Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Sherzod Abdukadirov ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Cham : Springer International Publishing Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Colección: Palgrave Advances in Behavioral Economics Número de páginas: XIX, 351 p. 4 illus., 1 illus. in color Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-319-31319-1 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Behavioral economics Welfare Population Economics Behavioral/Experimental Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This collection challenges the popular but abstract concept of nudging, demonstrating the real-world application of behavioral economics in policy-making and technology. Groundbreaking and practical, it considers the existing political incentives and regulatory institutions that shape the environment in which behavioral policy-making occurs, as well as alternatives to government nudges already provided by the market. The contributions discuss the use of regulations and technology to help consumers overcome their behavioral biases and make better choices, considering the ethical questions of government and market nudges and the uncertainty inherent in designing effective nudges. Four case studies - on weight loss, energy efficiency, consumer finance, and health care - put the discussion of the efficiency of nudges into concrete, recognizable terms. A must-read for researchers studying the public policy applications of behavioral economics, this book will also appeal to practicing lawmakers and regulators Nota de contenido: 1 Overview of Behavioral Economics and Policy -- 2 The Four Pillars of Behavioral Paternalism -- 3 Failing Better: What We Learn by Confronting Risk and Uncertainty -- 4 Behavioral Nudges and Consumer Technology -- 5 Private-Sector Nudging: The Good, the Bad, and the Uncertain -- 6 Who Should Nudge? -- 7 Weight Loss Nudges: Market Test or Government Guess? -- 8 Nudging in an Evolving Marketplace: How Markets Improve Their Own Choice Architecture -- 9 One Standard to Rule Them All: The Disparate Impact of Energy Efficiency Regulations -- 10 Nudges in Healthcare En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-31319-1 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=42226 Nudge Theory in Action : Behavioral Design in Policy and Markets [documento electrónico] / Sherzod Abdukadirov ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Cham : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan, 2016 . - XIX, 351 p. 4 illus., 1 illus. in color : online resource. - (Palgrave Advances in Behavioral Economics) .

Título : Rationality and Operators : The Formal Structure of Preferences Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Cato, Susumu ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Singapore : Springer Singapore Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: SpringerBriefs in Economics, ISSN 2191-5504 Número de páginas: IX, 124 p. 1 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-981-10-1896-1 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Economic theory Welfare economics Economics Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This unique book develops an operational approach to preference and rationality as the author employs operators over binary relations to capture the concept of rationality. A preference is a basis of individual behavior and social judgment and is mathematically regarded as a binary relation on the set of alternatives. Traditionally, an individual/social preference is assumed to satisfy completeness and transitivity. However, each of the two conditions is often considered to be too demanding; and then, weaker rationality conditions are introduced by researchers. This book argues that the preference rationality conditions can be captured mathematically by "operators," which are mappings from the set of operators to itself. This operational approach nests traditional concepts in individual/social decision theory and clarifies the underlying formal structure of preference rationality. The author also applies his approach to welfare economics. The core problem of 'new welfare economics,' developed by Kaldor, Hicks, and Samuelson, is the rationality of social preference. In this book the author translates the social criteria proposed by those three economists into operational forms, which provide new insights into welfare economics extending beyond 'new welfare economics.'

Título : Value Economics : The Ethical Implications of Value for New Economic Thinking Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Griffiths, M. R ; Lucas, J. R ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: London : Palgrave Macmillan UK Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Número de páginas: XV, 281 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-54187-1 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Business ethics Finance Philosophy and social sciences Welfare economics Economic policy Economics Policy Ethics of the Social Sciences Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice Finance, general Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: The last financial crisis revealed a gap between business practice and ethics. In Value Economics, Griffiths and Lucas examine some of the reasons for this ethical gap and discuss the resulting loss of confidence in the financial system. One of the reasons has been hazy or inadequate thinking about how we value economic enterprises. With the close link between the creation of value and business ethics in mind, this book proposes that economic value should become the basic metric for evaluating performance in the creation of value, and for establishing fair and reasonable standards for executive compensation. Value Economics considers a number of rational philosophical principles for business management, on which practical codes of business ethics can be based. As the creation of value has moral implications for economic justice, the book reaffirms the argument for economics as a moral science, and seeks, within the context of proposed changes in the regulation and control of financial services, to answer the following question: will things really change after the last financial crisis?

Título : Free Money for All : A Basic Income Guarantee Solution for the Twenty-First Century Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Walker, Mark ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: New York : Palgrave Macmillan US Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan Colección: Exploring the Basic Income Guarantee Número de páginas: XI, 249 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-1-137-47133-8 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Finance, Public Economic theory Welfare economics Macroeconomics policy Economics Policy Theory/Quantitative Economics/Mathematical Methods Finance Macroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Social Choice/Welfare Economics/Public Choice Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: A basic income guarantee (BIG) is a payment by the federal government to all adult citizens. This book uses the United States as its model and sets the minimum income at $10,000 USD. Free Money for All seeks to show that not only is a basic income guarantee a feasible model for public policy, it is a morally attractive proposal. In this exciting new volume, Walker argues that BIG promotes three positive outcomes - social stability, gross national happiness, and gross national freedom - unlike alternate proposals such as socialism, laissez-faire capitalism, and the traditional welfare state. He uses a philosophical perspective to defend BIG against the claim that the promotion of social goals egregiously infringes the requirements of justice. Free Money for All employs a novel twist on the though that BIG can be supported by the idea of a social dividend En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1057/9781137471338 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=41966 Free Money for All : A Basic Income Guarantee Solution for the Twenty-First Century [documento electrónico] / Walker, Mark ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - New York : Palgrave Macmillan US : Imprint: Palgrave Macmillan, 2016 . - XI, 249 p : online resource. - (Exploring the Basic Income Guarantee) .

Early evidence seemed to suggest that this pattern would be borne out. But, as time passed and growth persisted, inequality continued to grow, casting doubt on the received wisdom. The aim of this two-volume book is to analyze the current state of global and regional inequality, dissect the phenomenal increase in inequality that we have seen occur in recent times, and better understand the complex relationship between inequality and development. The political instability and conflict that we see around the world, arguably, has connection to economic deprivation of large segments of society and the perception of marginalization.
