This book provides a forum for leading scholars in organization theory to engage in meta-theoretical reflection on the historical development, present state and future prospects of organization theory as a sciаъбжэentific discipline The central question explored is the epistemological status of organization theory as a policy science This is a meta-theoretical question; the object of analysis and debate in this volume is not a set of organizational phenomena, but organization бйжщнtheory itself By drawing attention to organization theory as a practical social activity, this book reviews and evaluates important epsitemological developments in the discipline More specifically, the focus is on issues related to the nature of knowledge claims put forward in organization theory and the controversies surrounding the generation, validation and utilization of such knowledge.

Why are some parts of the world so rich and others so poor? Why did the Industrial Revolution - and the unprecedented economic growth that came with it - occur in eighteenth-century England, and not at some otаъбзнher time, or in some other place? Why didn't industrialization make the whole world rich - and why did it make large parts of the world even poorer? In "A Farewell to Alms", Gregory Clark tackles these profound questions and suggests a new and provocative wayбйжщш in which culture - not exploitation, geography, or resources - explains the wealth, and the poverty, of nations Countering the prevailing theory that the Industrial Revolution was sparked by the sudden development of stable political, legal, and economic institutions in seventeenth-century Europe, Clark shows that such institutions existed long before industrialization He argues instead that these institutions gradually led to deep cultural changes by encouraging people to abandon брсщюhunter-gatherer instincts-violence, impatience, and economy of effort-and adopt economic habits-hard work, rationality, and education The problem, Clark says, is that only societies that have long histories of settlement and security seem to develop the cultural characteristics and effective workforces that enable economic growth For the many societies that have not enjoyed long periods of stability, industrialization has not been a blessing Clark also dissects the notion, championed by Jared Diamond in "Guns, Germs, and Steel", that natural endowments such as geography account for differences in the wealth of nations A brilliant and sobering challenge to the idea that poor societies can be economically developed through outside intervention, A Farewell to Alms may change the way global economic history is understood Автор Gregory Clark.

Societies, whether traditional or modern, experience tension between spontaneity (individual freedom) and control (regulation) Consequently, economies as a subsystem of society experience it too More specifiаъбзаcally, they experience a tension between economic individualism and economic collectivism, which in modern economies revolves around the role of the state in the economy Since the collapse of communism, this tension has manifested itself not as a tension between markeбйжщсt capitalism and command socialism but as a tension between the free market and the interventionist variants of market capitalism Although currently economic and political liberalization is in evidence worldwide, not only in post-communist societies, its outcome remains uncertain Автор J L Porket.

"Intellectual property" - patents and copyrights - have become controversial We witness teenagers being sued for "pirating" music - and we observe AIDS patients in Africa dying due to lackаъбзо of ability to pay for drugs that are high priced to satisfy patent holders Are patents and copyrights essential to thriving creation and innovation - do we need them so that we all may enjoy fine music and good health? Across time and space the resounding answer is: бйжщэNo So-called intellectual property is in fact an "intellectual monopoly" that hinders rather than helps the competitive free market regime that has delivered wealth and innovation to our doorsteps This book has broad coverage of both copyrights and patents and is designed for a general audience, focusing on simple examples The authors conclude that the only sensible policy to follow is to eliminate the patents and copyright systems as they currently exist 1 edition Авбрсъгторы Michele Boldrin David K Levine.
