3 Hollander, Samuel

xii, 572p.,24cm.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
ISBN : 9789814663977.
330.153 HOL 145541
In this book, the author offers a critical yet
sympathetic analysis of Mill-s quest to accomplish
thorough reform of capitalism in the interest of
distributive justice while protecting the security of
property and contemplating the potential evolution of
capitalism into cooperative organization. Part I of the
book serves as an introduction to the investigation of
Mill-s theory of economic policy, Parts II and III
include Mill-s primary policy recommendations, while Part
IV adds a substantial -Overview and Evaluation- reviewing
the author-s main conclusions. A major concern is Mill-s
perception of the composition of the -greatest number-
whose interests are to be considered by policy-makers,
here arises his attitude towards British Imperialism.

ISBN : 9789814632324.
338.9 CHO 145534
This book extends the scope of theory and applications by
asserting that other distinct behaviors evolve and
dominate in other economic systems. Systemic differences
arise from distinct social, political and economic
behavioral-motivational types that associate with
intensive agent activity in household, state and firm
settings. External conditions, historical events, and
agent interactions ultimately result in domination of one
motivational type over others, thus determining distinct
profiles of structure, conduct, and performance in
different economic systems, that are generally observed
in the adopting countries.

339 ACE 145551
Throughout Macroeconomics, the authors use real economic
questions and data to help students learn about the world
around. Taking a fresh approach, the authors use the
themes of optimization, equilibrium and empiricism to
illustrate the power of simple economic ideas, and their
ability to explain, predict, and improve what happens in
the world. Each chapter begins with an empirical question
that is later answered using data in the Evidence-Based
Economics feature. As a result of the text’s practical
emphasis, students will learn to apply economic
principles to guide the decisions they make in their own
lives.
