Neo Classical Economic Policy and Consumption Theory, 2006. A discussion regarding the neoclassical economic theory. 1,350 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 1 source, $ 53.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses how neoclassical economics provides an evaluation of current economic situations as they relate to elements within society. Neoclassical economics is a form of macroeconomics that allows for an evaluation of these elements that may include pricing employment spending consumption and the value of money. The paper further discusses how neoclassical economists as more capable of realizing the shift in the economy over time they can then produce resolutions to issues that may be affecting the problems that are related to the current economic condition. Neoclassical economics also focuses on the individual and his or her relationship to the economy.

Abstract Schumpeter's economic theories as they are outlined in "Capitalism, Democracy and Socialism" differ significantly from the neo-classical view of economics. The neo-classical view is outlined-with reference to Adam Smith as a representative neo-classical economist--and contrasted with Schumpeter's theories. Schumpeter's absorption of Marxism, his views on markets and monopolies, and his ruminations on the future of capitalism are highlighted and contrasted with the neo-classical paradigm.

Neo Classicism, 2002. An analysis of the origins and impact of neo classicism on art, culture and politics in France 1760-1848. 2,400 words (approx. 9.6 pages), 6 sources, $ 89.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper will explore the origins and manifestation of neo classicism in France in the period from 1760 to 1848. As will be seen, neo classicism exerted a profound influence not only on the art of France during this period, but also upon its culture and political theory. However, as will be seen, French neo classicism was significantly influenced by events that took place outside of France, such as the excavations at Pompeii and Herculaneum in Italy. While these discoveries contributed more to an interest in all things classical rather than to specific artistic or cultural occurrences in France at this time, they nonetheless suggest something of the transnational nature of the neo classicism movement.

United Nations Policy Formulation and Policy Implementation, 2004. Provides an overview of United Nations policy formulation and policy implementation in the context of international public administration organizations. 1,478 words (approx. 5.9 pages), 4 sources, MLA, $ 48.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines, through a literature review, instances of policies that were developed and not effectively carried out, as well as recent requirements for the formulation of policies put into place at the UN. It looks at how a sustained public information campaign is extremely important for the success of the UN?s attempt to reinvent its system of policy formulation and policy implementation due to all the ?bad news?, including terrorism and war and AIDS, etc., dominating the TV and print news agencies.
From the Paper "There are myriad examples of the UN?s good work ? in many and diverse areas where there are desperate human needs throughout the world ? and also, on the other hand, there is no shortage of evidence that some policies, although they were drawn up with the best of intentions, failed in their mission, or were thwarted either through no direct fault of the UN, or because the UN?s policy implementation could not match the promises in the policy formulation. One example of the apparent failure of a policy which was to be implemented was recently reported by the British Medical Journal (Tayal, 2003). The journal claimed that a UN policy designed to tackle the health and human rights needs of ?indigenous people? ? a policy which was formulated in 1995 ? has not been very effective in its implementation."

Conclusions
From the Paper "For many years the Chinese Yuan was pegged to the U.S. dollar and, until recently, this was not a foreign policy issue. However, as the U.S. as well as other markets, have seen their import markets grow far beyond their export markets and consequently maintain extreme trade deficits, the artificial manipulation of the Yuan has now become a matter of foreign policy. Many foreign markets view China's exchange regime, managed float or not, to be an economic weapon and one in which it has not been reticent to utilize."

Abstract This paper discusses unsustainable consumption patterns and the laws of thermodynamics. It discusses the relationship between thermodynamics and the study of neo-classical economics and free-market society and its importance in the current economic model. Finally, the paper examines why ecological economics is antithetical to neo-classical economists and free market advocates and then discusses the need for further research on the topic.

Further Research
From the Paper "The first law of thermodynamics is the law of conservation and this law is critical in the establishment of sustainable consumption patterns within a free-market economy that rejects all forms of constraints (Lawn pars.2-5). Although this law states that energy cannot be destroyed or created it illustrates that materials that result in energy can be depleted through transformation processes that result in forms of energy that cannot be harvested in an economic sense. Entropy is essentially the second law of thermodynamics and as such is central to thermodynamics as it is applied to ecological economics. Entropy is the concept in ecological economics that describes the state of potential energy as being less than the initial energy contained within an item or unit (Finch & McMaster 135). It describes the necessity of continually introducing new energy into economic activity to produce ever greater results or outcomes at the risk of economic shutdown."

Classical Marxist Theory and Classical Mercantilism, 2002. Comparison paper on Marxism and Mercantilism. 1,496 words (approx. 6.0 pages), 2 sources, APA, $ 49.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses and compares the economic aspects of Marxism and Mercantilism. It also compares the strengths and weaknesses inherent in both systems. Finally, the paper compares the way Marxist economy viewed its position in the international economy and the way the Mercantilist economy viewed its position.
From the Paper "While no single treatise written by Marx and/or Engels covered all aspects of Marxism, the Communist Manifesto suggests many of its premises, the work Marx is most famous for, Das Kapital, developed many of the socialists doctrines that Marxism is known for. Though not well known, many pieces of the Marxist system were actually drawn from earlier economic and historical ideas. (Avineri) Works by earlier political philosophers and economists such as, George Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Saint-Simon, J.C. L. de Sismondi, David Ricardo, Charles Fourier, and Louis Blanc were all liberally drawn from. Never the less, Marxist analysis as fully developed by Marx and Engels, was conclusively original."

Public School Policy Making, 2007. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate an understanding of the public school policy process, key policy terminology and policy concepts by examining the public school (K-12) policy for the state of New York. 3,635 words (approx. 14.5 pages), 12 sources, APA, $ 101.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explores various policy papers, which define public school policy ranging from illumination of the classroom to environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance to funding recommendations. The author points out that a systematic difference was found between the federal and the non-federal systems in policy performance including little indication that federal systems either equalize or redistribute the aggregate resources of society. The paper relates that the goals of the governor's 'Campaign for Fiscal Equity' are (1) a multi-year, massive infusion of school funding, (2) the creation of a clear cut system of accountability to drive funds to key educational strategies and (3) a fair and simple foundation formula to distribute school aid based on student need not politics.

From the Paper "Policy issues in New York State Schools are inclusive of use of chemical and pesticides in school and recently Education Law 409-I has been enacted which establishes the department as being responsible to report "on the status of utilizing environmentally sensitive cleaning and maintenance (green ) products in all public and nonpublic schools by June 1, 2007." Policy such as this is shaped by the stated needs of certain socio-political view and in one such case the need for facility alignment for quality education is upheld by educators."

Economic Development Strategies in South America, 2002. Examines economic strategies of structuralism, neo-liberalism and Marxism and how they are applied to three countries in South America. 1,606 words (approx. 6.4 pages), 7 sources, APA, $ 52.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract Since World War II developing countries in South America have been provided with the option of adopting one of three different economic development strategies-- structuralism, neo-liberalism, and Marxism. This essay examines the economic and political results engendered by each approach and determines what these results suggest for future economic policy choices in the region. Three countries lend themselves to this analysis. Cuba, since the overthrow of the Batista regime and the establishment of Castro's Marxist government, has pursued economic development along Marxist lines. In Argentina a structuralist economic order under Juan Peron gave way to a neo-liberalist orientation. In Chile, a neo-liberal experiment between 1974 and 1990 took place and this experiment has led to structural change in the national economy.
From the Paper "Under Raul Alfonsin and the Radical Party, efforts to reconcile democratization with rapid development and social justice were largely frustrated by a succession of failed stabilization plans (Smith, 1991). A catastrophic economic collapse led to a convincing victory by Peronist Carlos Menem in the May 1989 presidential contest. This ushered in a wave of neoliberal, free market reforms designed to restructure the Argentine economy along the lines of a so-called Washington Consensus (Smith, 1999). In essence, Menem rejected the structuralist, populist, and statist postulates defended by Peronism since the 1940s."

Economic Thermodynamics, 2006. A discussion regarding thermodynamics and economics. 1,350 words (approx. 5.4 pages), 4 sources, $ 53.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper discusses the question of including thermodynamics in the study of economics. It is very important to include it when studying neo-classical economics and free-market activity because it alone seems capable of introducing consumption pattern analysis into the study of economics. Thermodynamics is important within ecological economics and within economics in general because the environment within which all economies function is anchored in a finite system that is constrained by its very nature and character.
From the Paper "Resources are limited and many are not reproducible in any type of practical natural sense that would allow even sustainable growth models to be applicable. Petroleum will eventually be completely depleted and the natural process of producing it is simply not a practical option that would result in sustainable consumption patterns. "

The Economic and Political Effects of Globalization, 2003. The paper discusses the economic and political effects of globalization on the nation state, concentrating on the Australian experience. 1,600 words (approx. 6.4 pages), 12 sources, MLA, $ 52.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that proponents of globalization consider government intervention, in the form of economic regulation of the market and state ownership of strategic industries, as obstacles to market liberalization; the Australian government has been strongly influenced by neo-liberalism economic theory, resulting in government deregulation of the market. The author points out that, although its supporters argue otherwise, globalization is not a natural occurrence but rather the result of deliberate political and economic policy implemented by government. The paper stresses that globalization threatens democracy and the relevance of the nation state, results in fewer but larger corporations, rationalizes the downsizing of labor forces, de-skills the work force and replaces the democratic ideal of majority rule with that of minority reap.
From the Paper "Globalization is promoted by the owners and controllers of capital; the captains of industry and commerce, management of multi national corporations, financial institutions and investment funds. It is this group that are advocates of market liberalization and market deregulation and privatization, as they consider such policies allow them the freedom to reduce costs by the efficient allocation of resources in order to maximize profit. Supporters of globalization are proponents of neo-liberalism economics. They believe that the market, free of tempering controls, is the best mechanism for the regulation of economic activity and the attainment of increased general living standards. Tariffs are viewed as a hindrance to trade and thus economic growth."

Monetary, Fiscal and Exchange Rate Policy, 2002. A study of the connection between monetary policy, fiscal policy, and the exchange rate policy. 1,250 words (approx. 5.0 pages), 28 sources, APA, $ 42.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains monetary, fiscal and exchange rate policies separately, with definitions by different economists to balance the arguments. It is then followed by a discussion of their connection to each other, involving issues such as GDP, government expenditure, and interest rates.
From the Paper "McDonald states monetary policy is the government?s policy on setting the level of the money supply (1996: 149). It is the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA)?s attempt to change the quantity of money and interest rates so as to affect aggregate demand and, ultimately, equilibrium real GDP and the price level. Monetary policy, fiscal policy and the exchange rate policy are used by the RBA and by the Treasury to moderate fluctuations in a country?s economic growth rate and to maintain an appropriate trend growth rate. In today?s world of floating exchange rates, it can be demonstrated that monetary policy is more effective at controlling macroeconomic conditions than fiscal policy is."
