Dictionary Of Economics

Routledge Dictionary of Economics Second edition The most informative dictionary of economics available, the Routledge Dictionary of Economics avoids the tendency to indulge in long-winded definitions of the major concepts and provides students with a lucid, comprehensive and accurate guide to the discipline. Employing the key feature of further reading with many of the terms, the book uses the subject classification system defined by the Journal of Economic Literature and The Economic Journal. There have been sweeping developments in economics in the decade since the appearance of the first edition of the dictionary and the new version reflects this by including a wealth of material on additional topics, including: . . . . . . economic anthropology Blairism endogenous growth theory French Circuit School output floor regulation predator–prey models. The dictionary has been compiled for the needs of students and teachers of economics, finance, accountancy and business studies and should prove to be an invaluable resource.
