It pursues an integrative approach by putting the main findings of economics into a broader perspective; theories are critically reflected on from a philosophical standpoint and by comparing them to approaches found in the social sciences, while implications for the design of the legal system and business practices are highlighted throughout. In addition, the book presents brief examples and comprehensive case studies to facilitate an understanding of the theories’ real-world implications. Starting from the question as to why and how societies organize economic activity, the book adopts an institutional perspective to analyze the potential and limitations of different market types with regard to alleviating scarcity and achieving distributive objectives. It not only covers traditional rational-choice models, but also systematically introduces readers to important findings from behavioral economics and psychology. A companion workbook is available which features a wide variety of exercises, ranging from basic multiple-choice questions to challenging mathematical problems and case study scenarios. .Springer Texts in Business and Economics,2192-4341MicroeconomicsExperimental economicsEconomicsHistoryGame theoryEvolutionary economicsInstitutional economicsMicroeconomicsExperimental EconomicsHistory of Economic Thought and MethodologyGame TheoryInstitutional and Evolutionary EconomicsMicroeconomics.Experimental economics.EconomicsHistory.Game theory.Evolutionary economics.Institutional economics.Microeconomics.Experimental Economics.History of Economic Thought and Methodology.Game Theory.Institutional and Evolutionary Economics.338.5QC 100rvk83.11bklKolmar Martinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut529015MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910255042803321Principles of Microeconomics2225286UNINA
