Beyond Rationalist Orthodoxy: Towards a Complex Concept of the Self in Ipe
BEYOND RATIONALIST ORTHODOXY: TOWARDS A COMPLEX CONCEPT OF THE SELF IN IPE by SIMON GLAZE A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Political Science and International Studies The University of Birmingham May 2009 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract In this thesis I investigate the intellectual foundations of International Political Economy (IPE) in order to develop a more complex account of agency than that currently provided to the subject field by neoclassical economics. In particular, I focus on the thought of Adam Smith, whose ideas are gaining interest in IPE owing to an increasing recognition of his seminal contribution to the subject field. I investigate the secondary debate on Smith, his influences, his distance from his peers in the Scottish Enlightenment and his ongoing influence across the social sciences. I also analyse the thought of William James, and argue that his similarly influential concept of agency offers a complex view of the self that is complimentary to Smith’s account. I suggest that the framework of the self that these thinkers provide can present critical IPE theorists with an alternative concept of agency than the reductive account currently employed in the subject field. -

How Does Fiscal Policy Affect the American Worker?
HOW DOES FISCAL POLICY AFFECT THE AMERICAN WORKER? JOHN D. MUELLER* OVERVIEW American policymakers have begun to prepare the public for fiscal policy changes, such as comprehensive reforms of the Federal income tax and Social Security retirement systems, which would profoundly alter the lives of American workers and their families. Projected fiscal imbalances are clearly unsustainable, and Europe’s economic and demographic crisis, characterized by high unemployment and falling fertility rates, illustrates the grave dangers of policy mistakes. But no American consensus has emerged, partly because there is no generally accepted and empirically grounded theory explaining how fiscal policy affects employment and fertility. This paper lays out a simple but com- prehensive framework for analyzing such questions, by proceed- ing from the homey example of a children’s lemonade stand to describe how Augustine’s theory of personal love and Aristotle’s theory of distributive justice were originally integrated within economic analysis. The second section applies the analysis to describe and update “Rueff’s Law,” which explains how employ- ment and unemployment are determined by the cost of labor (measured as workers’ share of total labor and property income after government taxes and benefits). The analysis shows that funding social benefits either by borrowing or with income taxes raises the cost of labor and unemployment, while funding such benefits with payroll taxes does not increase unemployment but may lower labor market participation. The third section extends the analysis to fill a crucial gap in the economic theory of fertility and shows that most variation in the Total Fertility Rate (TFR) among the fifty countries for which data are available (compris- * John D. -

An Outline of Economics and Demographics in the Top 5 Commerce Cities by GDP
International Journal of Economics MANAGEMENT and JOURNALS Management Sciences managementjournals.org Vol. 1, No. 12, 2012, pp. 78-89 INDIA BUSINESS PRIMER – An Outline of Economics and Demographics in the Top 5 Commerce Cities by GDP Amandip Singh Sidhu 3237 King George Hwy, South Surrey, BC. V4B 1P7 E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT This article provides a brief business primer to those interested in India from an investment or entrepreneurship perspective. The top 5 cities for commerce are presented, based upon their Purchasing Power Parity Gross Domestic Product (PPP GDP). Key statistics including, demographics, literacy rates and religious breakdowns are presented, as well as economic drivers for each of the top 5 commerce cities. 1. INTRODUCTION “The Indus Valley civilization, one of the world's oldest, flourished during the 3rd and 2nd millennia B.C. and extended into northwestern India. Aryan tribes from the northwest infiltrated onto the Indian subcontinent about 1500 B.C.; their merger with the earlier Dravidian inhabitants created the classical Indian culture. The Maurya Empire of the 4th and 3rd centuries B.C. - which reached its zenith under Ashoka - united much of South Asia. The Golden Age ushered in by the Gupta dynasty (4th to 6th centuries A.D.) saw a flowering of Indian science, art, and culture. Islam spread across the subcontinent over a period of 700 years. In the 10th and 11th centuries, Turks and Afghans invaded India and established the Delhi Sultanate. In the early 16th century, the Emperor Babur established the Mughal Dynasty which ruled India for more than three centuries. -

A host of programs were added that in themselves ac- count for a substantial share of the growth of government in the twentieth cen- tury, and the propensity to add new programs increased. The New Deal was the result of a unique concatenation of forces: the unprecedented magnitude of the contraction, the political accident that the party favoring bigger government was out of power when the contraction began, and the unique personalities of Hoover and Roosevelt were among the most important. Moreover, as many historians of the Great Depression have recognized, there was an important ideological factor in the equation: intellectuals had already been converted to the cause of an expanded federal sector. -
William Lawther, to Give Us His Presidential Address
PRESIDENTS ADDRESS MR. W. E. JONES : It now gives me the greatest possible pleasure, gentlemen, to call upon our President, Sir William Lawther, to give us his presidential address. Sir William Lawther (President) FELLOW MEMBERS, It has become to many a mere form of speech to declare that we live in difficult and tragic times. With the rest of the community we share the common difficulties and tragedies that beset mankind in his endeavours to find a way through those upheavals that mar civilisation. We who belong to this industry have seen tragedy overshadow the British coalfields in the disasters at Knockshinnoch, Creswell and Easington. These major catastrophes, together with another four to five hundred deaths, and the countless thousands of silicosis and pneumoconiosis cases, and the day to day accidents, bring ever before us the terrible price that those who pursue the calling of "Miner" have to pay, in addition to the services they render to their nation. Will those who in moments of anger next grumble about either the quantity or the quality of their coals, remember the cost in human life, suffering and agony it means to the mining community. The miner always 21 pays in blood. Whatever the other problems that will call for your attention as delegates this week, the causes of these appalling losses of life must be faced, in order to eradicate them, if it be possible for human agencies to do so. There have passed from our midst since we last met, two men who have in recent years graced this platform; Sir Arthur Street and the Right Honourable Ernest Bevin, M.P. -
Reconstructing Political Economy: the Great Divide in Economic Thought/William K.Tabb
Reconstructing Political Economy Reconstructing Political Economy offers an original perspective on the questions the great economists have asked and looks at their significance for today’s world. Written in a provocative and accessible style, it examines how the diverse traditions of political economy have conceptualized economic issues, events and theory. Going beyond the orthodoxies of mainstream economics, it shows the relevance of political economy to debates on the economic meaning today. This book is a timely and thought provoking contribution to a political economy for our time. In this light, it offers fresh insights into such issues as modern theories of growth, the historic relations between state and market, and the significance of globalization for modern societies. Reconstructing Political Economy will be of great interest to economists, political scientists, and historians of economic thought. William K.Tabb is Professor of Economics and Political Science at Queens College and the Graduate Center of the City University of New York. He is the author of The Japanese System: Cultural Economy and Economic Transformation, The Political Economy of the Black Ghetto; and co-editor of Instability and Change in the World Economy.
