This collection of theoretical studies reflects a variety of research paradigms. Together they contribute to an interesting and important theme - financial instability is a significant characteristic of modern capitalism. These studies reflect the belief that capitalism progresses through historical time in a dynamic fashion that is too complex for laissez-faire to be a practical policy rule. Government is necessary to realize full economic potential, and economic theory should provide insights that enable policymakers to design effective government policy.
