Liberalism vs. etatism: permanenta şi inevitabila dezbatere

Mihai Vladimir Topan

Revista OEconomica, 2010, issue 02

Abstract: In this paper we try to elucidate the proper manner to evaluate economic theories and systems within the present financial crisis context. The main lines of argumentation are as follows: appeals to facts cannot settle the liberalism/etatism debate; the deadlock has an important methodological/epistemological substratum, thus the debate is truly „fundamental”; the only way out is genuine theoretical debate.

Keywords: liberalism; etatism; economic calculation; externalities; public goods; monopoly; economic crisis; credit expansion; mass error (search for similar items in EconPapers)
