When economics & human rights collide

Posted in economics by Francisco Marco-Serrano @ Aug 8, 2008

From previous posts (especially this one, and this one) someone couldn’t argue I’m a little bit liberal…, at least in an economics point of view. You need to state it quite right, since such a short word means something from social liberal (USA), to libdem (UK), or even center-right, or the pejorative term neocon (have a look to this post and this Wikipedic to try untangling the mess. So, let’s say I’m someone that thinks Government is just to clear/solve market failures (yes, I’m not 100% pure). Probably, when connecting the words liberal and economics you’ll come with Milton Friedman.

It’s a pity when economics and human rights collide:

_The Economist: The Trouble with Friedman.

_Administración Hueca 2.0 (Void Admin 2.0). /// The Shock Doctrine.

 

I’m still a liberal economist though…, but keeping ethics and human rights RIGHT.
