Título : Social Preference, Institution, and Distribution : An Experimental and Philosophical Approach Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Natsuka Tokumaru ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Singapore : Springer Singapore Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: Evolutionary Economics and Social Complexity Science, ISSN 2198-4204 num. 3 Número de páginas: XII, 165 p. 24 illus., 22 illus. in color Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-981-10-0137-6 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Economic history Behavioral economics Social policy Economics Behavioral/Experimental Methodology/History of Thought Policy Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This is the first book to examine behavioral theories on social preference from institutional and philosophical perspectives using economic experiments. The experimental method in economics has challenged central behavioral assumptions based on rationality and selfishness, proposing empirical evidence that not only profit seeking but also social preferences matter in individuals' decision making. By performing distribution experiments in institutional contexts, the author extends assumptions about human behavior to understand actual social economy. The book also aims to enrich behavioral theories of economics directed toward institutional evolution. The author scrutinizes how specific institutional conditions enhance or mute individuals' selfish incentives or their fairness ideals such as egalitarian, performance-based, labor-value radicalism or libertarianism. From experimental results and their analysis, implications for actual problems in social economy and institutional change are derived: why performance-based pay often fails to promote workers' productivity; why labor wages decline whereas shareholder's values increase after financialization; and whether socially responsible investment can be a social institution for corporate governance. The book is also addressed to philosophers of social sciences interested in how experimental methods can contribute to developing cognition of human behaviors and be extended to social theories. Referring to behavioral theorists in the history of economic thought, the author discusses the meanings of experiments in the methodology of social sciences. She also proposes new ways of interpreting experimental results by reviving historic social theories and applying them to actual social problems Nota de contenido: Preface -- I.

Título : Theoretical and Practical Reason in Economics : Capacities and Capabilities Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Ricardo F. Crespo ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Dordrecht : Springer Netherlands Fecha de publicación: 2013 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: SpringerBriefs in Philosophy, ISSN 2211-4548 Número de páginas: IX, 109 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-94-007-5564-2 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Epistemology Ethics Economic history Social sciences Economics Methodology/History of Thought Methodology the Sciences Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: The aim of the book is to argue for the restoration of theoretical and practical reason to economics. It presents Nancy Cartwright and Amartya Sen’s ideas as cases of this restoration and sees Aristotle as an influence on their thought. It looks at how we can use these ideas to develop a valuable understanding of practical reason for solving concrete problems in science and society. Cartwright’s capacities are real causes of events. Sen’s capabilities are the human person’s freedoms or possibilities. They relate these concepts to Aristotelian concepts. This suggests that these concepts can be combined. Sen’s capabilities are Cartwright’s capacities in the human realm; capabilities are real causes of events in economic life. Institutions allow us to deliberate on and guide our decisions about capabilities, through the use of practical reason. Institutions thus embody practical reason and infuse certain predictability into economic action. The book presents a case study: the UNDP’s HDI Nota de contenido: Table of contents -- Summary -- Preface -- Chapter I: Introduction -- Chapter II: Nancy Cartwright, Capacities and Nomological Machines: The Role of Theoretical Reason in Science -- Chapter III: Sen’s Capability Approach: The Role of Practical Reason in Social Science -- Chapter IV: The Contributions of Aristotle’s Thought to the Capability Approach -- Chapter V: Socio-Economic Machines and Practical Models of Development: The Role of the Human Development Index -- Chapter VI: Conclusion: Theoretical and Practical Reason in Economics En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-5564-2 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=36747 Theoretical and Practical Reason in Economics : Capacities and Capabilities [documento electrónico] / Ricardo F.

Título : Ethical Reflections on the Financial Crisis 2007/2008 : Making Use of Smith, Musgrave and Rajan Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Wilfried Ver Eecke ; SpringerLink (Online service) Editorial: Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg Fecha de publicación: 2013 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: SpringerBriefs in Economics, ISSN 2191-5504 Número de páginas: X, 102 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-642-35091-7 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Finance Political economy Ethics Economic history Macroeconomics International economics Economics Macroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Finance, general Economy Methodology/History of Thought Clasificación: 658 Empresas. Organización de empresas Resumen: In this book the author reflects on the philosophical and ethical bases of the financial crisis 2007-08 and the subsequent recession. He finds in Adam Smith solid arguments for the new free market economy, capitalism, but also arguments for a role for the government in the case of public goods (roads) and of merit goods (education, control of banking). Where the provision of public goods requires that the government respect consumer sovereignty there the provision of merit goods legitimizes the violation of that principle. By making use of the history of economic thought (e.g., the neo-liberal tradition) the author demonstrates that Musgrave’s idea of merit goods can be expanded to eleven domains in which the government has an important function. He legitimizes that move by using the Kantian argument that we must accept the possibility conditions for what we want. The author demonstrates that Rajan, Reich and Reinhart & Rogoff make use of seven of his eleven categories of merit goods in order to explain the financial crisis 2007-08 and the subsequent recession. The author thereby provides a philosophical and ethical analysis of the government's failures at the basis of the financial crisis Nota de contenido: Introduction -- Adam Smith and the Free Market -- The Concepts of Private, Public and Merit Goods -- Business Ethics and Eleven Categories of Merit Goods -- The Ethical and Socio-political Dimensions of the Financial Crisis of 2007-08 and the Subsequent Recession -- Conclusion En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-35091-7 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=36567 Ethical Reflections on the Financial Crisis 2007/2008 : Making Use of Smith, Musgrave and Rajan [documento electrónico] / Wilfried Ver Eecke ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer Berlin Heidelberg : Imprint: Springer, 2013 . - X, 102 p : online resource. - (SpringerBriefs in Economics, ISSN 2191-5504) .

Organización de empresas Resumen: This book explores how successful the various tenets of economic thought have been in prognosticating or remedying economic crises. Examining key episodes in economic history, from famines in antiquity to present-day financial collapse, the author finds that several theories failed to cope with a crisis and lost their academic impact. The author also presents cases in which major theoretical innovations were achieved after the experience of a crisis as well as cases where a completely new theory was needed to explain and face the events. This book will appeal to researchers and scholars interested in understanding how theoretical developments in economics are affected by real-world economic crises Nota de contenido: Preface.- 1 Introduction: Delusions and Lessons -- 2 Forms of Economic Theories and Crises -- 3 How Old are Economics? -- 4 Economic Crises and Practices in the Roman and Byzantine Era -- 5 Economic Theories and Practices in Medieval Europe -- 6 Economics before the Industrial Revolution.- 7 The Industrial Revolution and the Foundation of Classical Economics -- 8 Crises and Theories After the Industrial Revolution -- 9 From Accumulation to Distribution -- 10 The Great Crisis and the Theory of Keynes -- 11 Theories of Central Planning and the Socialist Crises -- 12 From Keynesian Economics to Stagflation.- 13 Development, Collapse and New Theories -- 14 Post 2008: Challenging the Foundations of Orthodoxy -- 15 Is there a Methodological Crisis in Economics?.
