Extractions: My issue is that he keeps saying 'sin taxes' are not Pigovian. I've disagreed on this point, and I disagree continually. A basic definition of a Pigovian tax is: a tax levied on a particular behavior in the market that is generating negative externalities. The idea is the tax re-aligns the real social cost with the benefits of the activity. Mankiw distorts this defintion and implies that negative externalities can only occur as an action by one group negatively affects another... The externality is there - it's not external of self at that time, it's external of self OVER time. It's correcting behavior that, if a person had complete foresight and 20/20 clarity of the totality of their life, one likely would do less of. ...And this is ignoring the very real argument that many 'sins' DO have real negative external consequences at a given point in time - consequences on family and relationships that, while often non-pecuniary, cannot be ignored. I have never thought of it that way before, but

Extractions: Health Education Welfare ... Business and Economics Portal This box: view talk edit Mathematical economics refers to the application of mathematical methods to represent economic theories and analyze problems posed in economics . It allows formulation and derivation of key relationships in a theory with clarity, generality, rigor, and simplicity. Mathematics allows economists to form meaningful, testable propositions about many wide-ranging and complex subjects which could not be adequately expressed informally. Further, the language of mathematics allows economists to make clear, specific, positive claims about controversial or contentious subjects that would be impossible without mathematics. Much of economic theory is currently presented in terms of mathematical economic models , a set of stylized and simplified mathematical relationships that clarify assumptions and implications.

This site is an introduction to basic concepts on economics and contains information, quizzes, activities and links to various online resources to learn more about our global economy. Why is it important to study economics or learn about our economy? There are many reasons, but one of the most important is the study of economics is concerned with how people get the goods and services they need and want. It also focuses on money - how it is made, lost, used and misused. When our economy does well, we as a nation and as people do well. When our economy is in crisis or doesn't do well, the nation suffers and we as people don't always get the goods and services we need. Thus it is important that all citizens be informed about the economy. Click on the topics below to get more specific information about the various aspects of economics.

A look at inflation, land and so-called feudalism on the fall of Rome. Rome's economic problems of poor management, the dole, and hoarding combined together to escalate financial stress. Heather's thesis is that the various assaults on Rome had ripple effects. Rome lost territory and revenue, was spread too thin militarily, and the barbarians on the border kept growing stronger. One attack was not enough, but the cumulative effect caused the fall of the western empire Argentarii were the Roman equivalent of the Greek trapezitoi who were private bankers Mommsen explains how he arrives at 19th century monetary equivalents for Roman coins.

Extractions: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Economists study how people make decisions, such as those that occur in a traditional marketplace Economics is the study of how people make choices to get what they want , when they cannot get everything they want. The word comes from Ancient Greek , and relates to οἶκος oíkos "house" and νόμος nomos "custom" or "law". The models used in economics today, were mostly started in the 19th century. People took ideas from the field of political economy , because they wanted to use an empirical approach similar to the one used in the natural sciences There are three main ideas that are useful for understanding economics. Economics looks at how people try to make use of limited resources to get what they want. Resources include money time , and things (like shoes, clothes, toys, etc.). People want different resources than the ones they have, so they will trade resources for other resources. Most resources are limited. This is called scarcity . Because things are scarce, people have to make choices about how to spend their resources on the different resources they want. The study of this behavior can quickly become very complicated because there are many people, and each person's choices affect the choices that other people make.
