Mancur Lloyd Olson, Jr. (pronounced /ˈmænsər/[1] or /ˈmæŋkər/; January 22, 1932 – February 19, 1998) was a leading American economist and social scientist who, at the time of his death, worked at the University of Maryland, College Park. Among other areas, he made contributions to institutional economics on the role of private property, taxation, public goods, collective action and contract rights in economic development. Olson focused on the logical basis of interest group membership and participation. The reigning political theories of his day granted groups an almost primordial status. Some appealed to a natural human instinct for herding, others ascribed the formation of groups that are rooted in kinship to the process of modernization. Olson offered a radically different account of the logical basis of organized collective action.

评分 评分 评分转的。 我一直想不清楚工会的问题。认同经济学原理的人,基本都会认可,工会对于工人作为一整体的福祉是有害无益的。如果在劳动力市场上有许多剩余劳力,老板要是受不了工会了,只需要把工人全都辞退,雇一批新人就可以了(当然为此要付一点成本)。工会的作用,只不过给劳动力...

This book develops an original theory of group and organizational behavior that cuts across disciplinary lines and illustrates the theory with empirical and historical studies of particular organizations. Applying economic analysis to the subjects of the political scientist, sociologist, and economist, Mr. Olson examines the extent to which the individuals that share a common interest find it in their individual interest to bear the costs of the organizational effort.
The theory shows that most organizations produce what the economist calls "public goods"--goods or services that are available to every member, whether or not he has borne any of the costs of providing them. Economists have long understood that defense, law and order were public goods that could not be marketed to individuals, and that taxation was necessary. They have not, however, taken account of the fact that private as well as governmental organizations produce public goods.

评分不错
评分Mancur Olson是个天才
评分其实是应老师的要求看其中的一章,但是写的还蛮好玩的我就去翻了全书。英文版很棒,读起来一点都不拗口,也没有很多生词XD 说是group,但是没有分析宗教组织哦,不知道是不是因为离理性的假设有些远。附录好看!个人觉得经济部分比政治部分有意思得多……【啊我的周末就这么没有了!
评分Smart book. A footnote of Nietzsche's philosophy.
