Assim que os economistas deram a conhecer os seus padrões às gerações, o indigente e o especulador, o vendedor de hortaliças e a multidão deixaram de ser atores incongruentes inexplicavelmente atirados para um palco; cada qual percebeu que representava um papel, feliz ou não, e que era essencial para a continuidade do próprio drama humano. Quando os economistas assumiram o seu papel, o que tinha sido apenas um mundo banal ou caótico tornou-se numa sociedade organizada com uma história de vida que fazia sentido.É esta procura da ordem e do significado da história social que está no âmago da economia, e que constitui o tema central deste livro. Embarcaremos não só numa série de palestras sobre princípios, mas também numa viagem pelas ideias que configuraram a história humana. No nosso caminho conheceremos não só pedagogos, mas também muitos indigentes, muitos especuladores, gente arruinada ou triunfante, muitas multidões, aqui e ali mesmo um merceeiro. Recuaremos no tempo para redescobrir as raízes da nossa própria sociedade no turbilhão dos padrões sociais que os grandes economistas discerniram e, ao fazê-lo, conheceremos os grandes economistas – não só porque as suas personalidades são muitas vezes empolgantes, mas também porque as suas ideias têm a marca de quem as produziu. 10

  • Comparable Worth
    Elaine Sorensen
    For decades women working as nurses, librarians, and secretaries have argued that they are paid less than men in jobs requiring comparable skill and effort. By the late 1980s, the notion of 'comparable worth' had become a familiar one, and comparable worth initiatives were being developed to counteract the persistent disparities between male and female pay. In a comprehensive a...
