Libertärer Paternalismus, vol 66

Robert Neumann

in Untersuchungen zur Ordnungstheorie und Ordnungspolitik from Mohr Siebeck, Tübingen, Walter Eucken Institut, Freiburg, Germany

Abstract: Libertarian paternalism justifies government intervention in private transactions with the irrationality of the choices made by the citizens involved. The legitimacy of these interventions is based on the condition that the citizen's freedom of choice is to be respected. Based on a description of the theoretical foundations and the conceptual weaknesses of this idea, Robert Neumann's goal is an attempt at justification in terms of constitutional economics. (sewn paper, published in German)
