The common feature of those developments is that they challenge the market failure conclusion that many economists and policymakers have drawn from Samuelson's theory. This volume brings together for the first time the most significant critiques of the theory of market failure. Contributors include: "Paul A. Samuelson, Francis M. Bator, Kenneth D. Goldin, Earl R. Brubaker, Harold Demsetz, Andrew Schotter, Charles M. Tiebout, James Buchanan, Carl J. Dahlman, Robert Axelrod, Ronald H. Coase, Steven N.S. Cheung, Robert W. Poole, Jr., Robert J.

Politics & Government

Advocates of the centralist US Constitution of 1788 not only won the day, but by calling themselves federalists, usurped the name of their opponents who worked for a looser relationship between the states. Historians and political scientists detail the 18th-century debate and compromises, and trace the continuing influence of "antifederalism" through the Civil War to the present.

Washington's Taiwan Dilemma, 1949-1950: From Abandonment to Salvation

In contrast to most of the historical literature, which has concentrated on Washington's approach to developing a policy toward the communist-controlled mainland, Finkelstein examines the concomitant policy debate that centered around the question of how to deal with the Nationalist holdout regime on Taiwan a story particularly intriguing because "the evidence clearly indicates that had North Korea not invaded the south in June 1950 the United States would not have intervened with military force to prevent the fall of Taiwan to a communist invasion." Note: CiP has the title and subtitle reversed. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
