On Ethics and Economics de Amartya K. Sen

On Ethics and Economics

Autor Amartya K. Sen, C. Ed. Sen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 1988
In this elegant critique, Amartya Sen argues that welfare economics can be enriched by paying more explicit attention to ethics, and that modern ethical studies can also benefit from a closer contact with economies. He argues further that even predictive and descriptive economics can be helped by making more room for welfare-economic considerations in the explanation of behaviour.

Descriere

Sen argues that welfare economics may be enriched by paying more attention to ethics, that modern ethical studies can also benefit from a closer contact with descriptive economics, which, in turn, may learn from the methods of welfare economics.
