pt. I. Evolutionary political economy : theory -- part II. Methods of evolutionary political economy.

Sommario/riassunto

This book promises to describe political and economic dynamics as interwoven as they are in real life and it adds to that an evolutionary perspective, which allows for a long-run view. The essays in this volume explore the theoretical and methodological aspects of evolutionary political economy. In part one, the authors consider the foundational contributions of some of the great economists of the past and the second part demonstrates the benefits of adopting the methods of computer simulation and agent-based modelling. Together, the contributions to this volume demonstrate the richness, diversity and great explanatory potential of evolutionary political economy.
