| Description: |
Describes economists' efforts to quantify the social decisions people necessarily make and the philosophies that those choices define. This book is suitable for those who seek introductions to writings on human well-being and collective decision-making. |
| Synopsis: |
This second part of a two-volume set continues to describe economists' efforts to quantify the social decisions people necessarily make and the philosophies that those choices define. Contributors draw on lessons from philosophy, history, and other disciplines, but they ultimately use editor Kenneth Arrow's seminal work on social choice as a jumping-off point for discussing ways to incentivize, punish, and distribute goods. |
