  • Natural Law in Pre-Classical Economics

    Natural Law in Pre-Classical Economics

    The idea of natural law appears often in the pre-classical thought. The three main proponents of this idea are: Aristotle, St. Thomas Aquinas and Francois Quesnay.

  • The Dominant Economic Paradigm

    The Dominant Economic Paradigm

    The dominant economic paradigm in American thought has always placed a strong emphasis on efficiency, and concomitant concepts such as individualism and autonomy. A corollary to this thinking is that the individual is dynamic and efficient whereas the government is an ossifying bureaucracy, resistant to change and anathema to efficiency. The individual is the creator of wealth; the government is the parasitic redistributionary usurper that feeds upon this wealth. This aversion to government assistance

Because these transactions were rare it was common to use barter exchange rather than having a common form of payment like we use today. Barter exchange would involve a direct swapping of products and service and requires a buyer to track down a seller.

  • The Entrepreneur in Economics

    The Entrepreneur in Economics

    Current economic research denies the innate characteristics of the entrepreneur. Rather than attributing economic growth and innovation to personality traits, economists would rather advocate a form of economic determinism: if an aggressive personality dominated an industry, economists try to explain the characteristics of the industry that made aggression a successful strategy. Economic models are contrived to remove the personality from the entrepreneur, to make all entrepreneurial decisions predestined, given enough time. However, to deny Bill
