Hickson | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | In this book, Thompson and Hickson strongly challenge thestandard interpretation of the basis of growth and viability ofdominant wealthy nations. Briefly, efforts of the economically wealthyand the government leaders to increase their wealth and protect itfrom aggressors, internal and external, are cast in a new evolutionarylight. The challenge is to the idea that societies leadingintellectual formulators of political and social policy have beenhelpful. Their alternative, and persuasive, interpretation is that therise and survival of wealthier nations has been achieved because of an`effective democracy‘. .The authors explain why an effective democratic state must avoid`narrow, short-sighted‘, rational appearing concessions to a sequenceof aggressors. In short, the Thompson-Hickson interpretation of therise of wealthy dominant nations does not rely on advice of superiorintellectual advisors, but instead rests on the pragmatic, almost adhoc, actions of democratic legislators. | 出版日期 | Book 2001Latest edition | 关键词 | Inflation; Institution; Keynes; Policy; Revolution; conflict; cooperation; development; economics; efficiency | 版次 | 2 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-1457-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-5563-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-1457-2 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 2001 |
