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.

Gabriel and EclectEcon give the standard intepretation of the Coase Theorem. EclectEcon writes: In your example, if the organic tomato farmer values the right to be pesticide free more than the evil lawn guy values a nice lawn, then the tomato farmer will not sell that right to the lawn guy if it is initially given to the farmer. You want to argue about who SHOULD have the property right? that has nothing to do with efficiency IF property rights are well-defined (and easily enforced) and if transaction costs are low. One of the difficulties with the Coase theorem here is that it assumes that the discussion of the externality is ex-ante rather than ex-post . It assumes that the "evil lawn guy" will first ask Mr. Tomato Farmer: "Pardon me, but I would like to spill pesticides on your property. What's your price for allowing me to do so?"

   Extractions: Welcome to the Economics Website. This site is an introduction to basic concepts on economics and contains information, quizzes, activities and links to various online resources to learn more about our global economy. Why is it important to study economics or learn about our economy? There are many reasons, but one of the most important is the study of economics is concerned with how people get the goods and services they need and want. It also focuses on money - how it is made, lost, used and misused. When our economy does well, we as a nation and as people do well. When our economy is in crisis or doesn't do well, the nation suffers and we as people don't always get the goods and services we need. Thus it is important that all citizens be informed about the economy. Click on the topics below to get more specific information about the various aspects of economics.

    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
