About this product

Product Information

The central aims of this work are to provide new kinds of analysis relating to individual and to collective ecomic decision-making in ways motivated both by fundamental critiques of existing and standard approaches to them. It examines very substantially enhanced roles for linear and goal programming analyses and associated duality results. This is done by extending Lancaster's characteristics approach to individual choice behaviours to provide new motivations for regulatory and self regulatory instruments, including money and various kinds of laws, taxes and subsidies. These analyses and results are also intended to establish and emphasize vel and constructive roles for recognitions and exploitations variously by individuals, by corporations and by governments of relative uncertainty and incompleteness principles and processes, of kinds which may be more familiar to physicists than to ecomists.
