Abstract

Jonathan Gruber's market-leading Public Finance and Public Policy was the first textbook to truly reflect the way public policy is created, implemented, and researched. Like no other text available, it integrated real-world empirical work and coverage of transfer programs and social insurance into the traditional topics of public finance. By augmenting the traditional approach of public finance texts with a true integration of theory, application, and evidence, Public Finance and Public Policy engages students like no other public finance text. Thoroughly updated, this timely new edition gives students the basic tools they need to understand the driving issues of public policy today, including healthcare, education, global climate change, entitlements, and more.

Abstract

Social Choice and Welfare explores all aspects, both normative and positive, of welfare economics, collective choice, and strategic interaction. Topics include but are not limited to: preference aggregation, welfare criteria, fairness, justice and equity, rights, inequality and poverty measurement, voting and elections, political games, coalition formation, public goods, mechanism design, networks, matching, optimal taxation, cost-benefit analysis, and experimental investigations related to social choice and voting. As such, the journal is inter-disciplinary and cuts across the boundaries of economics, political science, philosophy, and mathematics. Articles on choice and order theory that include results that can be applied to the above topics are also included in the journal. While it emphasizes theory, the journal also publishes empirical work in the subject area reflecting cross-fertilizing between theoretical and empirical research. Readers will find original research articles, surveys, and book reviews.

Abstract

The idea of the quality of life is central to economic and social assessment and also to public policy, social legislation, and community programs. However, the commonly used indicators of economic success such as per capita income are at best crude measures of the quality of life. There is a strong need for a systematic exploration of the content, reach, and relevance of the concept of the quality of life, and ways of making it concrete and usable. In this collection of essays, some leading economists and philosophers rise to that challenge and provide a wide-ranging investigation. The essays include examinations of recent attempts to replace incomes and utilities by the concept of capability and also an exploration of the classic Aristotelian accounts of human flourishing, which provide insights into capability-based assessment of the quality of life. Some underlying methodological problems are also examined, including cultural relativism and utility as a measure of advantage. Possibilities of application are discussed in the context of important practical problems, such as correcting gender-based inequalities, determining medical priorities, and promoting living standards. The overall result is a major contribution to the understanding and use of the idea of the quality of life.

Abstract

L'« approche par les capacités », élaborée par Amartya Sen, est un programme de recherche désormais important en sciences sociales. Elle propose une nouvelle économie politique qui fait des droits humains réels une valeur cardinale et accorde à la question des institutions une importance décisive. Elle éclaire des problèmes aussi divers que ceux des indicateurs macro-économiques, de la pauvreté, des rapports de genre, du sous-développement. Elle préconise un mode d'évaluation du bien-être social, centré sur la situation singulière des personnes. Et, concernant le processus de démocratisation, elle recommande de focaliser l'attention sur la participation des groupes les plus vulnérables. Il y a assurément là matière à bousculer les acceptions établies de la liberté en économie. Ce volume est consacré à la présentation et à la discussion des principes et des concepts de cette approche. Une réflexion critique est menée sur leur cohérence et leur pertinence dans diverses problématiques. À l'appui de cette réflexion sont présentées des applications dans différents domaines. La question des indicateurs du développement est mise en discussion, en tenant compte de la spécificité du contexte européen. Des objets d'enquête empirique comme les politiques publiques, le travail ou les directives sociales sont convoqués comme lieux de mise à l'épreuve des principes et des concepts de ce programme.

Abstract

"In the economics of everyday life, even ethnicity has become a potential resource to be tapped, generating new sources of profit and power, new ways of being social, and new visions of the future. Throughout Africa, ethnic corporations have been repurposed to do business in mining or tourism; in the USA, Native American groupings have expanded their involvement in gaming, design, and other industries; and all over the world, the commodification of culture has sown itself deeply into the domains of everything from medicine to fashion. Ethnic groups increasingly seek empowerment by formally incorporating themselves, by deploying their sovereign status for material ends, and by copyrighting their cultural practices as intellectual property. Building on ethnographic case studies from Kenya, Nepal, Peru, Russia, and many other countries, this collection poses the question: Does the turn to the incorporation and commodification of ethnicity really herald a new historical moment in the global politics of identity?"--

Abstract

The United States is generally believed to be a liberal, rights-based culture. In such a society, Richard S. Markovits asserts, arguments of moral principle are the dominant type of legitimate legal argument. Markovits analyzes various rights associated with our society's basic duties of showing appropriate, equal respect for all creatures capable of moral integrity and appropriate, equal concern for their actualizing this potential. Ranging widely and covering in depth such flashpoint issues as educational rights, minimum real-income rights, privacy rights, abortion, parenting, sexual liberties, and the right to die, Matters of Principle is a deeply engaged and thoughtful work, certain to be controversial and much debated.
