Heuristic in the economic: a note on Robert Nozick

Fernando Estrada

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: In this paper we have presented arguments for heuristics on economics research. In particular, have been important aspects that show how the tradition of the theory, to make principle simplicity to represent many empirical data of experience or information, was one of the goals set by the fathers of the discipline: Adam Smith, John Stuart Mill, and Jeremy Bentham.
