Zusatztext 'The research contained... is of a very high level.' - Giampaolo Garzarelli! Journal of Public Finance and Public Choice Informationen zum Autor ROGER KOPPL is Professor of Economics and Finance at Fairleigh Dickinson University, Madison, USA. Klappentext Investment and all other economic actions depend on 'subjective' expectations. The problem is how to construct a theory of expectations that assumes people interpret their situations in unpredictable ways. Building on the evolutionary economics of F.A.Hayek, Koppl gives us such a theory. This includes a theory of 'Big Players', demonstrating that discretionary policy interventions create ignorance and uncertainty. The volume uses innovative methods to address many vital problems in economic theory, and connects with many other schools of economics including New Institutional Economics, Constitutional Economics and Post Walsarian Economics.
