The definitive resource for a new
generation of economists
www.dictionaryofeconomics.com
Following its original publication in 1987, The New Palgrave Dictionary
of Economics has become established as the leading reference work for
economists in all spheres of the discipline. R. H. Inglis Palgrave described his
work as ‘an almost unique example of economic cooperation’ and this single
resource featured original articles from key economic thinkers including Milton
Friedman, Paul Samuelson, James Buchanan, Kenneth Boulding, George Stigler,
James Tobin, Kenneth Arrow, John Kenneth Galbraith, and Murray N. Rothbard.
A new edition
The past two decades, however, have seen many changes in the world and
particularly in the field of economics and so in 2008 Palgrave Macmillan is
proud to publish a new edition of the Dictionary of Economics which reflects
the current state of the discipline and features contributions from today’s
leading economists.
This new edition features over 1000 new or heavily revised articles and includes:
• signed articles by over 1,500 eminent contributors providing a
current overview of economics
• many individual classic essays of enduring importance from the
previous edition
• topics placed in their historical perspective, indicating likely future
trends as well as describing the contemporary situation
New or expanded areas include:
• experimental and behavioural economics
• game theory
• international economics
• technological change and growth
• labour economics
Published in eight print volumes and for the first time in online format, this second
edition is the definitive resource for a new generation of economists.
