Rationality, Psychology and Capitalism

Arkadiusz Sieroń

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Providing a thorough defence of economics against behavioural imperialism and psychologism, Arkadiusz Sieroń argues that psychology should not play a significant role in economic theory. He focuses on the role of rationality in economics, the psychological theories of the business cycle, the debate surrounding the impact of capitalism on mental health, and anti-market sentiment.
