Description
Recent attempts at exploring the interface between economics and the other social sciences have often ended in little more than attempts to incorporate the other disciplines under a economistic regime. "Interfaces in Economic and Social Analysis" brings them into a dialogue. The introductory paper sets the agenda by outlining ways in which so-called exogenous factors can influence economic processes. A team of internationally known economists, representing a wide range of different schools, then examine these factors from the economists' perspective. In the next section of the book the economists' chapters are reviewed by social scientists from the exogenous domain - sociologists, political scientists, social psychologists, demographers and legal scientists among them. In the final part of the book, the economists' contributions are integrated with those of the other social science disciplines. This book should be of interest to academics and postgraduates in economics, politics, sociology and law.
