Book Description
La historia de la economía política es rica en ejemplos de precursores olvidados, cuya obra no despertó ningún eco en su tiempo y que sólo fueron redescubiertos cuando sus ideas más importantes habían sido ya difundidas por otros. Es también rica en notables coincidencias de descubrimientos simultáneos y de singulares peripecias de algunos libros. Pero difícilmente se encontrará en esta historia, ni en la de ninguna otra rama del saber, el ejemplo de un autor que haya revolucionado los fundamentos de una ciencia ya bien establecida y haya conseguido por ello general reconocimiento y que, a pesar de todo, haya sido tan desconocido como Carl Menger. Apenas si existen casos paralelos al de los Principios, que tras haber ejercido un influjo firme y permanente hayan tenido?debido a causas totalmente accidentales?tan limitada difusión.

Economía política de la política económica
Author: Leopoldo Fergusson
Publisher: Universidad de los Andes
ISBN: 9587745248
Category : Political Science
Languages : es
Pages : 413
Book Description
Alrededor del mundo, los gobiernos eligen políticas económicas que distan mucho de las que promueven el bienestar social. Esto ciertamente aplica para América Latina. Durante más de 200 años, los gobiernos de la región han fallado en proveer bienes y servicios públicos, han distorsionado los mercados y han promovido el aislacionismo, empobreciendo a su población. ¿Por qué? Históricamente, generaciones de académicos han culpado al sistema mundial, a la United Fruit Company, al imperialismo Yanqui, y a la división del trabajo internacional. Sin embargo, durante la última década una revolución intelectual ha sorprendido al continente. Por primera vez las raíces políticas domésticas del subdesarrollo latinoamericano y de los fracasos de su política económica han salido a relucir firmemente. Esta revolución ha sido conceptual y metodológica. Este libro es el primero en ofrecer una introducción en español a la aproximación metodológica de esta revolución. Resulta que las políticas desastrosas que eligen los gobiernos se deben a los incentivos que enfrentan sus políticos y a que los ciudadanos no cuentan con las herramientas ni los incentivos para evitarlo. El libro de Fergusson y Querubin será lectura esencial para estudiantes y otros lectores interesados no sólo en entender problemas como los de Latinoamérica, sino también en cómo trazar una ruta para superarlos.

ISBN: 1136654984
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
The book studies the origins and evolution of economic textbooks in the nineteenth and early twentieth century, up to the turning point represented by Paul Samuelson’s Economics (1948), which became the template for all the textbooks of the postwar period. The case studies included in the book cover a large part of Europe, the British Commonwealth, the United States and Japan. Each chapter examines various types of textbooks, from those aimed at self-education to those addressed to university students, secondary school students, to the short manuals aimed at the popularisation of political economy among workers and the middle classes. An introductory chapter examines this phenomenon in a comparative and transnational perspective.

The History of Italian Marxism
Author: Paolo Favilli
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004325433
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
In The History of Italian Marxism, Paolo Favilli offers an articulated analysis of the different levels at which Marx's ideas - and 'Marxism' as a doctrinal 'system' - were received in Italy from the time of the First International up till the eve of the First World War. Rejecting any linear understanding of the relation between Marx's texts and the assumption of Marxism as the ideology of the burgeoning workers' movement, Favilli explores the growth of different forms of Marxist culture through the period of the Paris Commune, the late-nineteenth-century debate on 'revisionism', and the rise of revolutionary syndicalism. Asking in each case whether 'Marxism' meant a science, an ideology, a way of doing politics, a utopia, a myth or a religion, Favilli goes on to assess which of these 'Marxisms' died with, and which have survived, the 'crisis' at the end of the twentieth century. With a new preface to the English edition. First published in Italian as Storia del marxismo italiano: dalle origini alla grande guerra, FrancoAngeli s.r.l. Milan, 1996.

Setbacks and Advances in the Modern Latin American Economy
Author: Pablo A. Baisotti
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000523721
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
This volume explores several notable themes related to the economy in Latin America and offers insightful historical perspectives to understand national, regional, and global issues in the continent since the beginning of the 20th century to the present day. The collected essays focus on economic crises, the relationship of growth models to society and politics, the fluctuations of local economies, and regional protests. Other aspects of consideration in this area include the evolution of integrated regional trading blocs, the informal economy, and the destruction of the productive potential that has had a serious social, cultural, and environmental impact. The volume refuses to impose a traditional and uncritical linear historical narrative onto the reader and instead proposes an alternative interpretation of the past and its relation to the present.

Economía política desde Estambul a Potosí

Pages : 335
Book Description
En l'actualitat, els economistes i els historiadors debaten sobre el paper exercit per les institucions i els estats en el desenvolupament econòmic a llarg termini durant l'Època Moderna. En general, s'assumeix que únicament als països de l'Atlàntic nord, l'estat i els drets de propietat es van configurar de tal manera que serien capaces de generar creixement econòmic a gran escala. De fet, l'aplicació d'aquesta perspectiva ha accentuat el tòpic d'una certa ineficàcia de les institucions del món mediterrani i ofereix una visió estereotipada del paper de l'estat. Aquest llibre pretén ser una contribució crítica que estableixi sinergies amb els economistes actuals i coadjuvi a la comprensió de la història econòmica en les societats preindustrials del sud d'Europa.

The Paretian Tradition During the Interwar Period
Author: Mario Pomini
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317690648
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
The years in-between the two World Wars were a crucial period for the building of economic dynamics as an autonomous field. Different competing research programs arose at international level. Great progress was achieved by studies on the business cycle, with the first statistical applications. Outside the theory of the business cycle, a significant line of inquiry was that pursued at the end of the 1930s by Hicks and Samuelson. This period also saw the formulation of another approach to formal economic dynamics which in the 1930s represented the frontier of research from the analytical point of view. It was an approach which set the notion of equilibrium at the basis of dynamics, exactly as in the case of statics, thus leading to the definition of a dynamic equilibrium approach. The aim of this volume is to take into consideration this original research field sparked from Pareto’s works and initially developed during the 1920s in the United States by two American mathematicians, G. Evans and C. Ross. In the 1930s, the concept of dynamic equilibrium became the main research field of the Pareto school which gave its most important contributions in this field. The Paretian economists as Amoroso, de Pietri Tonelli, Sensini, and the younger, such as Bordin, Palomba, La Volpe, Fossati and Zaccagnini, for the most part students of the former, developed this approach in many directions. The theory of dynamic equilibrium reached remarkable results from an analytical viewpoint through the wide application of the functional calculus, thus anticipating a perspective which was taken into consideration in the 1960s with the theory of optimal growth. Despite the Pareto school’s relevance, it remained widely unknown, not only at international level, but also in Italy. Recently, it has been object of renewed interest. This present work aims at reconstructing the fundamental contributions offered by the Pareto school in forming the economic dynamics theory.
