The global dimension of economic evolution

Más información sobre el libro

This volume on evolutionary approaches to economic development and growth is part of a series of special publications by Springer on Evolutionary Economics. It follows notable predecessors, including volumes on "Evolution in Markets and Institutions" and "Evolutionary and Neoclassical Perspectives on Market Structure and Economic Growth." These published works reflect the diverse interests of evolutionary economists and focus on significant research areas within the discipline. The editorial aim of these special volumes is to consolidate research topics to enhance problem focus and foster synergies in major research fields. Research in evolutionary economics can be categorized into areas influenced by neoclassical economics and those that are not. The critique of the neoclassical paradigm has been central to the success of evolutionary economics, which has effectively challenged key neoclassical positions. As a result, the landscape of neoclassical economics may be fundamentally altered moving forward.
