Description
This volume is divided into three sections, the first of which examines general issues including investment, microfoundations, labour economics and monetary theory. In the second part the discussion is extended to uncertainty and addresses the associated issues of rationality, trust and speculation. The third and final section focuses on international economics and considers the theory of comparative advantage, the fight against speculation in foreign exchange markets, Tobin's transactions tax and the Maastricht Treaty.
