Beyond the Market: The Social Foundations of Economic Efficiency
Jens Beckert
Economic theory, which explains efficiency using formalized rational choice models, often simplifies human behavior to the point of distortion. This work finds such theory to be particularly weak in explaining such crucial forms of economic behavior as cooperation, innovation, and action under conditions of uncertainty.
