Essays in Normative Economics and Measurement

En savoir plus sur le livre

Focusing on the intersection of values and economic analysis, this collection of essays explores methodological issues and the aggregation of personal preferences into collective choices. It addresses the logical and ethical dimensions of economic measurement, particularly concerning poverty, inequality, and literacy. While some essays are technical, they emphasize the role of moral reasoning, challenging the notion that economics is solely a positive science. This work is particularly relevant for researchers, students, and policymakers interested in the ethical implications of economic theory.
