Paul Craig Roberts 《Economic Affairs》1984,4(4):8-10
The US budget deficit, and the higher interest rates it is said to cause, is blamed for depressing the economies of Europe. A former Assistant Secretary to the Treasury, now Professor of Economics at Georgetown University, challenges the view that it is the result of President Reagan's tax cuts and defence build-up. In a broadly 'supply-side' analysis, he criticises Paul Volcker, Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank, David Stockman, Director of the Office of Management and Budget, and Professor Martin Feldstein, Chairman (until June) of Council of Economic Advisors. 相似文献

Professor William Grampp, of the University of Illinois, contends that there is no economic rationale behind arts subsidies in any form and calls for their abolition, Professor West responds that there may be a combination of public approval and external benefits that can justify continued subvention. 相似文献

Alec Nove Professor 《Economic Affairs》1987,8(1):31-35
In their book Socialism—The Grand Delusion Brian Crozier and Arthur Seldon presented arguments for the superiority of capitalism over socialism. Alec Nove, Emeritus Professor at the University of Glasgow, takes issue with their reasoning. Professor Nove agrees that the allocative efficiency of markets cannot be gainsaid. But he warns against applying arguments drawn from theories of perfect competition to the real world of uncertainty, mistakes, imperfect information and economic misjudgement. Brian Crozier responds that the evidence for the failure of socialism is irrefutable. 相似文献

Eli Schwartz Professor 《Economic Affairs》1987,8(1):14-26
Though less frequent with the years, intermittent calls for 'reflation' to stimulate the economy can occasionally still be heard from Keynesian economists and politicians. Eli Schwartz, Professor of Economics at Leghigh University, Pennsylvania, examines the effects of inflation, anticipated and unanticipated, on participants in the economy. Professor Schwartz argues that, in spite of the short-term political benefits, the longer-term costs are so high that less myopic politicians may perceive the electoral advantages in tackling inflation. 相似文献

Michael Beenstock 《Economic Affairs》1985,5(2):17-21
Should the well-off benefit from fiscal resources if they choose to have children? Professor Michael Beenstock of the City University Business School argues that they should not. Child Benefit, in common with other fiscal subventions, should be limited to families in most need. Dr lvy Papps in the last issue argued the case for selectivity in Child Benefit. Professor Beenstock's proposal represents a radical departure from the present arrangements under which Child Benefit is universal, regardless of family income, and he calculates the cuts in income tax that could follow. Given the size of his family (above). Professor Beenstock is obviously more interested in economic truth than personal advantage. 相似文献
