The Moral Economy: Why Good Incentives Are No Substitute for Good CitizensWhy do policies and business practices that ignore the moral and generous side of human nature often fail? Should the idea of economic man the amoral and self interested Homo economicus determine how we expect people to respond to monetary rewards, punishments, and other incentives? Samuel Bowles answers with a resounding "no." Policies that follow from this paradigm, he shows, may "crowd out" ethical and generous motives and thus backfire. But
Why do policies and business practices that ignore the moral and generous side of human nature often fail? Should the idea of economic man--the amoral and self-interested Homo economicus--determine how we expect people to respond to monetary rewards, punishments, and other incentives? Samuel Bowles answers with a resounding "no." Policies that follow from this paradigm, he shows, may "crowd out" ethical and generous motives and thus backfire. But incentives per se are not really the culprit. Bowles shows that crowding out occurs when the message conveyed by fines and rewards is that self-interest is expected, that the employer thinks the workforce is lazy, or that the citizen cannot otherwise be trusted to contribute to the public good. Using historical and recent case studies as well as behavioral experiments, Bowles shows how well-designed incentives can crowd in the civic motives on which good governance depends.Binding Type: Paperback

Came delivered as advertised straight to my doorstep! So convenient! Carbonation was great and no difference in taste if I wasted gas and went to the store. Great value!

Fresh crisp and refreshing
Flavor Name: Diet Coke, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I’d love Diet Coke. That’s just the type of person I am. I was pleased to see the Amazon sold this. It was a great value for the money. I got the 12 ounce cans in the 12 pack. The flavor was great. There was no problem with leakage or smash cans and I’m just very happy I was able to purchase this through Amazon. ..

Gotta have my Diet Coke
Flavor Name: Diet Coke, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
What can I say? I don’t drink coffee but Diet Coke is my daily morning fix! I love Diet Coke in the can better than the bottle unless I come across some bottles that have good carbonation, but they always seem to be a little lacking! Not so most of the time with the cans, but I love the taste of Diet Coke!
