	Towards An Understanding Of The Global Market System: A New Perspective For Economics
		Economic theory is an edifice of models built on this fundamental assumption, models which enable the economists either to make statements about the development of the parameters of the economic system or to prescribe the optimal choices to be taken.
		Whereas according to the liberal view the subject of economic rationality is the individual, the critics of this way of thinking point to the non-rational aspects of individual behavior, and emphasize the superiority of collective decision-making.
		Although the liberal economists are only interested in the head of the homo oeconomicus—the ideal personification of their model of rationality—they could not deny the existence of his or her belly.

	Liberal theory of economics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The liberal theory of economics is the theory of economics described by classical liberal authors such as Anders Chydenius, Adam Smith and the French Physiocrats.
		The concept of economic liberalism underpinned the move towards a free market economic system, and the subsequent demise of the mercantilist system.
		The classical liberal line in economics has been taken up by modern economists of the Austrian School, and its combination with the open society and democracy is what is understood as liberalism in most of the world outside the United States.

	Liberalism
		Liberalism can be understood as (1) a political tradition (2) a political philosophy and (3) a general philosophical theory, encompassing a theory of value, a conception of the person and a moral theory as well as a political philosophy.
		A perennial issue in liberal theory is the extent to which this basic individualism can be combined with a recognition of the social nature of humans, and the importance of one's social environment in the formation of personality.
		And this, of course, because epistemological theories are controversial.

		Modern economics views the individual as an isolated creature whose happiness lies in the ability to maintain or increase his present consumptive patterns, and the ability to draw from it consistently.

	Post-Autistic Economics Network and Post-Autistic Economics Review (heterodox economics)
		Economics has increasingly become an intellectual game played for its own sake and not for its practical consequences for understanding the economic world.
		Theories, scientific and otherwise, do not represent the world as it is but rather by highlighting certain aspects of it while leaving others in the dark.
		Post-Autistic Economics, however, addresses a different kind of situation: one where one theory, that illuminates a few facets of its domain rather well, wants to suppress other theories that would illuminate some of the many facets that it leaves in the dark.

	Scholastic Economics: Thomistic Value Theory (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Economics, as understood in the modern sense, occupied a subordinate place in relation to ethics and law in Catholic medieval doctrine.
		Within this framework, economic value was not regarded as an intrinsic quality but, rather, as the physical, mental, and moral significance given to an object by the evaluating subject’s assessment of the object’s desirability, utility, and scarcity.
		Although this narrow image of Catholic economic thought became entrenched in the twentieth century even within the Church, in the Catholic academic enclaves prior to the twentieth century, however, the development of economic thought progressed mainly from the contributions by the Scholastics.

	Netanel, Cyberspace Self-Governance: A Skeptical View from Liberal Democratic Theory (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Liberal democracy is a political system with representative governments elected by popular majority, the rule of law enshrined to protect individuals and minorities, and a significant sector of economic, associational, and communicative activity that is largely autonomous from government control.
		The traditional liberal conception of popular sovereignty is of self-rule reflected in and filtered through "an empire of laws, not of men." n58 In that view, both individual liberty and collective self-rule require constraints on the ability of temporal majorities to effect their will.
		In distinguishing liberalism from populism, I do not mean to overstate the case: There is a real tension between popular sovereignty and representative government within the liberal tradition, and many readings of [417] liberal* democracy do insist on a place for popular will far beyond a simple veto.

	Economic Development
		The entire theory of economic growth can be said to be geared towards it or even underlying it.
		Nonetheless, "economic development", as it is now understood, really only started in the 1930s when, prompted by Colin Clark's 1939 quantitative study, economists began realizing that most of humankind did not live in an advanced capitalist economic system.
		Early economic development theory was but merely an extension of conventional economic theory which equated "development" with growth and industrialization.

		However, what each country doesn't know is how strongly the other country is willing to fight over some other issue beside trade: a slice of territory coveted by both countries, a military build-up perceived as a threat, the exposure of a spy network or the mistreatment of an ethnic or religious minority, they note.
		The increasing economic openness of China might have just helped in preventing a military contest between China, Taiwan and the United States during the wake of Taiwan's 2000 presidential election.

		The theories we'll be looking at this semester will strike you as alien and unfamiliar precisely because they throw out all the familiar ways we've learned to think about literature and about ourselves.
		Most of the theories we'll look at throw out the idea of there being anything absolute, especially any absolute truth, and instead focus on how everything is constructed and provisional.
		Where liberal humanists deny this, and insist they can look at a literary text with no preconceived notions of what they'll find, they are only masking their own ideological commitment.

	Public Choice Theory, by Jane S. Shaw: The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics: Library of Economics and Liberty
		Public choice theory is a branch of economics that developed from the study of taxation and public spending.
		One of the chief underpinnings of public choice theory is the lack of incentives for voters to monitor government effectively.
		Anthony Downs, in one of the earliest public choice books, An Economic Theory of Democracy, pointed out that the voter is largely ignorant of political issues and that this ignorance is rational.
