Rezensionen

'Many authors have attempted to overcome the well-known methodological shortcomings of traditional mainstream economics: methodological individualism, externalisation of society, abstract rational agents. Romagnoli creates a forceful attempt to overcome these by taking a unique approach, that of systems theory!'
