「Philosophical」分類文章彙整

以下為網友在其他網站的留言:
經濟學理論也是有極限的。博愛座制度的設立,很多都是社會學層面的問題,而非單存的經濟問題。就算真的要用經濟學來討論博愛座,也請用真正的經濟學模型來解釋博愛座,而不是把經濟術語(成本、誘因、效益、外部效果…)當成隱喻,寫成這種似是而非的論述。(既不經濟學,也不社會學,這到底是甚麼?) 
好吧,就算真的要這樣寫,也請搬出新制度主義的寫法,認真討論博愛座這個制度設立的成因與後果,這樣才能算是從經濟學來討論博愛座的問題吧….Orz
如果你問十個學過經濟學的人「何謂經濟學?」你或許會得到11個答案。如果你問我「何謂經濟學?」,我想我只能告訴你,「經濟學是一種社會科學」。既然我連經濟學是什麼都搞不太懂了,如何能回答「經濟學的極限」這個問題呢?答案是「我不能!」所以這篇文章只能算是閒聊,像是我和詩人朋友討論理性的極限,大家來討論看看吧!

A nihilist is a man who judges of the world as it is that it ought NOT to be, and of the world as it [...]

How do you evaluate an investment when the effect of the investment is hard to measure? The investment I am thinking about is the defense budget. For many countries, it is an investment mainly to deter foreign aggression or threat of it.
One of the problem with national defense budget is, it’s so difficult to estimate [...]

Watching the passionate politics in the streets and vibrant economy that survived the 97 Asian financial crises, many believe Taiwan (officially dubbed Republic of China or R.O.C.) has come a long way from its past colonial and authoritarian governments to metamorphose into a democracy. As a Taiwanese resident, I can testify to this view. However, [...]
