The legal concepts that can fundamentally inform the economics of institutions In Legal Institutionalism, the eminent economist Geoffrey Hodgson proposes a new analytic approach for understanding modern economic institutions. Law helps to constitute some of the key features of modern market economies. Moreover, there is evidence that many people believe that obeying the law is important in itself, especially when it is deemed just, legitimate, and uncorrupt. Consequently, he argues, the role of law must be considered in analyses of the nature and dynamics of modern economic institutions and the motivations of economic agents. Hodgson lays out the basic approach and intellectual assumptions of legal institutionalism, citing such thinkers as Adam Smith and Karl Marx as well as insights from institutional economics, law, philosophy, psychology, and social theory. He considers how legal institutions emerged and evolved throughout history, stressing their importance in large-scale, complex economies. Informal rules and relations are vital as well, he explains, but these often rely on face-to-face contact, with smaller numbers of people. He shows that by examining relevant legal rules and relations alongside important informal rules, we can improve our understanding of the nature and role of property, contracts, money, and firms. Revisiting the socialist calculation debate on the feasibility of socialist planning, Hodgson argues that both sides paid insufficient attention to legal issues and underestimated the importance and inevitability of mixed economies. This milestone work by Hodgson has major implications for both theory and policy, suggesting new approaches to economic development, the theory of the firm, and countering the policy extremes of markets versus states.

A data-driven look at how philanthropy is changing and what comes next In The Measure of Our Generosity, Dr. Una Osili, Efroymson Chair in Philanthropy and Economics for Research and International Programs at the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, examines how charitable giving in America has shifted over the past two decades.

The book spans four sections covering modern giving norms, demographic shifts driven by race, immigration, and generational change, the role of technology in democratizing philanthropy, and practical strategies for building a lasting culture of giving.

The Measure of Our Generosity

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to operational excellence (OPEX) and its potential benefits in the public sector, offering a practical roadmap for preparation, implementation, and long-term sustainability. Through real-world case studies from diverse public sector organisations - including healthcare, law enforcement, higher education, and local government - it illustrates how various OPEX methodologies can drive efficiency and effectiveness.

While many public sector organisations have embraced methodologies like Kaizen and Lean, sustaining OPEX initiatives remains a challenge. Few have fully integrated Lean Six Sigma due to cultural resistance, a lack of formal infrastructure, limited skills and competencies, insufficient visionary and strategic leadership, low awareness of the integrated approach, and limited strategic alignment. Senior management often fails to prioritise OPEX, leaving critical improvement opportunities untapped. This book addresses these challenges, equipping leaders with the knowledge and tools to successfully implement and sustain OPEX in the public sector.

The contributors to this book utilize the Public Choice approach to interpret, analyze, and at times even predict policy outcomes from a variety of contexts around the world. Applications of Public Choice Theory to Public Policy emphasizes how much can be learned from studying real people in the process of navigating political processes and institutional change. The volume directly addresses what the Public Choice approach is, its relationship to policy analysis, and how both can be improved through the incorporation of a diversity of theoretical and empirical strategies. After establishing these strategies, Applications of Public Choice Theory to Public Policy puts this into practice to address issues such as educational reform in Ghana, policy responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, anti-trust policy, the political role of the Supreme Court in the U.S. and high courts in Latin America, the impact of taking a precautionary approach to energy policy, regulatory burdens as a form of time tax, and the looming uncertainty over how artificial intelligence will be governed as it continues to have an ever greater impact on our lives.
