Explorations in Pragmatic Economics

 

“檸檬市場”發表20年來,喬治·阿克洛夫的工作改變了我們看待經濟學的方式,特別是信息經濟學。在放棄古典經濟學的完美競爭基準時,Akerlof倡導的務實現代經濟學為市場、身份、歧視、動機和工作以及行為經濟學提供了深刻的見解。

這個Akerlof最重要的論文集合既介紹了Akerlof的工作,也為現代經濟學奠定了基礎。分為兩大領域,即微觀和宏觀經濟學,涵蓋信息經濟學;失業理論、宏觀經濟均衡、對金錢的需求、心理學和經濟學、歧視和其他社會問題的性質。此次收集以阿克洛夫的2001年諾貝爾講座結束,他在辯論中認為宏觀經濟學必須被認為是內在的行為。

For twenty years since the publication of his seminal paper 'The Market for "Lemons"', George A. Akerlof's work has changed the way we see economics, and the economics of information in particular. In abandoning the perfect-competition benchmarks of classical economics, the pragmatic modern economics championed by Akerlof has provided deep insights into markets, identity, discrimination, motivation, and work, and into behavioural economics in general.

 

This collection of Akerlof's most important papers provide both an introduction to Akerlof's work and a grounding in modern economics. Divided into two broad areas, micro- and macroeconomics, they cover the economics of information; the theory of unemployment; macroeconomic equilibria; the demand for money; psychology and economics; and the nature of discrimination and other social issues. The collection closes with Akerlof's 2001 Nobel Lecture, in which he argues that it is imperative that macroeconomics be considered inherently behavioural.

Akerlof's substantial introduction to this volume tells the story of these papers, connecting them and showing how his later work has built upon his early contributions, in many cases improving their arguments, their subtlety, and their usefulness today.
