Description

This book reflects Robert Dorfman's important contributions to the analysis of economic theory and public decision making during the last forty years. The central concern of much of Professor Dorfman's career has been social decisions: how to reach them and how to judge them. This has meant that he has worked in a wide range of areas within economics including: statistics, economic theory, natural resource and environmental economics, social decisions and the history of economic thought. In more recent papers he has challenged the traditional concepts relating to the maximization of social welfare.
