Description:
The volume is a unique attempt to explore the relationship between two of the most interesting contemporary schools of thought evolving at the interface between social science and social philosophy: The Austrian tradition of F A Hayek and Ludwig von Mises, and the Bloomington tradition of Elinor Ostrom and Vincent Ostrom.
Review Quotes: Economists seek to deepen the conversation between the Austrian and Bloomington Schools of political economy to combine the insights of both into the various patterns of order in human societies. They discuss ABC--Austria, Bloomington, Chicago: political economy the Ostrom way; the Ostroms and Hayek as theorists of complex adaptive systems: commonality and complementarity; a practical approach to understanding: the possibilities and limitations of applied work in political economy; the organizational evolution of the American National Red Cross: an Austrian and Bloomington approach to organizational growth and expansion; covenant and moral psychology in polycentric orders; the autonomy of the political within political economy; and innovation as a collective action challenge.--Annotation (c)2017 "(protoview.com)"
