About this title

Synopsis

Contains contributions assessing how the insights of normative economic theory can inform the design and invention of social, political, and economic institutions. Topics include the liberalization of regulatory regimes and issues of monopoly regulation and criminal cartels; methods for designing change, including the efficient control of pollution and international equity in collective decisions about the environment; organizational theory and the microeconomics of innovation; and a historical view of chaotic dynamics and current theories of "endogenous" growth.
