Kaup valmöguleikar

Þróun hagfræðilegrar hugsunar má rekja frá upphafi hennar í klassískri fornöld til dagsins í dag. Í þessari bók setur Alessandro Roncaglia fram skýra, hnitmiðaða og uppfærða útgáfu af verðlaunabók sinni The Wealth of Ideas. Hann fjallar um þróun hagfræðilegrar hugsunar út frá ólíkum sjónarmiðum og umræðum um efnahagsmál og samfélag í tímans rás. Í köflum um þekkta hagfræðinga, þar á meðal William Petty, Karl Marx og John Maynard Keynes, auk annarra áhrifamikilla einstaklinga og helstu álitamála hvers tímabils, leggur Roncaglia gagnrýnið mat á undirstöður jaðarhyggju og nýklassískrar hagfræði, sem byggist á skorti og nytsemi, og ber þær saman við klassíska og keynesíska nálgun.
