Sinossi
This study presents the view that economics can serve as a paradigm for all of the social sciences by dealing with actual problems of society. Providing insights into our understanding of human behaviour, it also suggests solutions to social problems in such areas as the environment, politics, art, family, history and academia. The economic model is extended by emphasizing issues of fairness and morals and by relating to psychological issues. This revised second edition presents three new chapters; fair siting procedures to preserve the natural environment, an economic analysis of the behaviour of academics, and fairness in social interactions (prisoner's dilemmas and ultimatum games).

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This book champions the view that economics is a social science, and that, moreover, it may serve as a new paradigm for the social sciences. Economics is taken to be part of those sciences which deal with actual problems of society by providing insights, improving our understanding and suggesting solutions. I am aware that the way problems are addressed here has little in common with economics as it is generally understood today; most economists make strong efforts to imitate the exact sciences. Economics tends to become a branch of applied mathematics; the majority of all publications in professional journals and books are full of axioms, lemmas and proofs, and they are much concerned with purely formal deductions. Often, when the results are translated into verbal language, or when they are applied empirically, disappointingly little of interest remains. The book wants to show that another type of economics exists which is surprisingly little known. This type of economics has its own particular point of view. It centres on a concept of man, or a model of human behaviour, which differs from those normally used in other social sciences such as sociology, political science, law, or psychology. I do not, however, claim that economics is the only legitimate social science. On the contrary, economics can provide useful insights only in collaboration with the other social Vll Vlll PREFACE sciences-an aspect which has been disregarded by mathematically oriented economics. 268 pp. Englisch.
