A review of clashes between global and local economics, reveals a new insight for anticipating the economic future.
Paradigm Theory and Policy Making is a wideranging and thoughtprovoking treatise on the forces that have shaped the political economies of the developed and developing world since World War II. The author-a vastly experienced policy maker, nationally and internationally-takes us on a journey that encompasses not just economics but political science, sociology, philosophy and cultural studies as he presents an alternative framework to conventional academic ideas.
Along the way, he provides a critical evaluation of theories that have dominated economic thought in the last 50 years and highlights the dangers of a blanket application of such theories without taking into account the "realworld" practicalities confronted by nation states in a globalizing world.
Topics include:
- The Conceptual Framework of the Paradigm Theory
- Civilization, Culture and the Paradigm of Political Economy
- American Values and the Paradigm of Political Economy
- The PostTerror Paradigm
- Developing Economies and the Paradigm of Political Economy
- A reflection on "Innocence and Design"
Praise for Paradigm Theory & Policy Making:
"An alternative framework of ideas for understanding the complexity of policy making in the fast lane." -John H. McArthur, Dean Emeritus, Harvard Business School.
