Choice and Public Policy

Mehr zum Buch

The book critiques the traditional rational choice model in economics, highlighting its inadequacies in explaining consumer behavior related to work, saving, spending, and social welfare. It draws on interdisciplinary research to argue that current public policies promoting active consumerism, entrepreneurship, and privatization are fundamentally flawed. By integrating insights from various fields, the text challenges the effectiveness of these policies and calls for a reevaluation of how choices are understood in the context of public policy.
