Produktbeschreibung

On his death in the autumn of 2006, Milton Friedman was lauded as the grandmaster of free-market economic theory in the postwar era by the New York Times and the most influential economist of the second half of the 20th century by the Economist. Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1976, Friedman was both a highly respected economist and a prominent public intellectual, the leader of a revolution in economic and political thought that argued robustly in favor of virtues of free markets and laissez-faire policies.Milton Friedman on Economics: Selected Papers collects a variety of Friedman s papers on topics in economics that were originally published in the Journal of Political Economy. Opening with Friedman s 1977 Nobel Lecture, the volume spans nearly the whole of his career, incorporating papers from as early as 1948 and as late as 1990. An excellent introduction to Friedman s economic thought, Milton Friedman will be essential for anyone tracing the course of twentieth-century economics and politics.

He received the 1976 Nobel Prize in Economics and is best known for his research on consumption analysis, monetary history and theory, and the complexity of stabilization policy. He was a principal founder of what has come to be known as the Chicago School of Economics and was one of the world's leading proponents of the importance of the free market.
