Extractions: Jump to: navigation search Face-to-face trading interactions on the New York Stock Exchange trading floor. Financial decisions can be one of those many economic choices people make. Economics is the social science that studies the production, distribution , and consumption of goods and services . The term economics comes from the Greek for oikos (house) and nomos (custom or law), hence "rules of the house(hold)." A definition that captures much of modern economics is that of Lionel Robbins in a 1932 essay : "the science which studies human behaviour as a relationship between ends and scarce means which have alternative uses." Scarcity means that available resources are insufficient to satisfy all wants and needs. Absent scarcity and alternative uses of available resources, there is no economic problem . The subject thus defined involves the study of choices as they are affected by incentives and resources.

Question from a reader email : I have come to believe that a recession is good for an economy because it culls away weak businesses and teaches the strong to survive by cutting the fat that is not needed. I was wondering, though, do you think a depression is good for an economy and why? It is a question a lot of people have been asking this week. In Are recessions good for the economy? I suggest why a recession would not be a good thing. permalink comments (0) I recently received this terrific letter from Jeremy Loscheider about the FairTax proposal.

Extractions: Summer Meeting Departmental Directory About the Department Support Welcome to the Department of Economics at Duke University. Much is and has been happening here over the past few years, and I am happy to take this opportunity to give you a brief picture of what we are all about. All of the recent changes in the department are rooted in a particular intellectual vision that the faculty developed over many years. It is a vision that emphasizes the fact that we ultimately are more than the sum of our parts if we operate in a flourishing intellectual climate that fosters the integration of activities across disciplines and sub-disciplines, across theory and empirical work, across teaching and research and across units within the university and the larger Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill Research Triangle. Our faculty's research interests are diverse and intellectually broad, but they overlap in unique ways across different sub-disciplines because of the shared interest in applying theoretically sound analysis to important applied research questions. And our research activities not only increasingly overlap with one another but also increasingly involve our graduate and undergraduate students as graduate
