El estudio de las interconexiones dadas entre dichas variables viene determinada por la Economía de la Educación, la cual analiza de manera detallada cuales son las principales actuaciones que llevan los Estados nacionales sobre el sector educativo y sus consecuencias en el crecimiento económico de una sociedad.

This study examines the "Economic Impact of Craftsmen Statue on Community Base Tourism Development in Tohpati village Klungkung Bali". The core concept of economic problems is the imbalance between unlimited human needs and the means of satisfying the needs of a limited number. Economics should not be emphasized through the point, but it should be emphasized as an approach to explain human behavior (Gary Becker). The economic system is a means used to regulate all economic activities in society whether done by the government or private in order to achieve prosperity and prosperity together. The Economic system can be divided into three namely: a First capitalist economic system that is all economic activity submitted to the market. Second, the communist economic system is all things governed by the government. The third is a mixed economic system that is a combination of the two economic systems above (capitalist and communist). Indonesia should adopt a mixed economic system because firstly, Indonesia is an emerging country, where market failures often occur due to uneven information or accessibility to transportation and communication facilities. The second is that there are still many Indonesian people are below the poverty line. Thirdly most Indonesians have businesses that are still classified into small and medium enterprises that still can not compete perfectly with a bigger business.

The Impact

This chapter reviews models of marriage, with special emphasis on how the sex ratio can help explain outcomes such as marriage formation, the intramarriage distribution of consumption goods, labor supply, savings, type of relationship, divorce, and intermarriage. Economic models of marriage pioneered by Gary Becker are reviewed in the first section and then extended in the next section to incorporate the labor market for the work-in-household approach of Grossbard. The following section discusses challenges in identifying exogenous variation in sex ratios and presents empirical evidence on the impact of sex ratios on labor supply, consumption, savings, and several other outcomes.

Economic Tools

This paper explains fraud from an economic point of view, using traditional economic tools and reasoning. It is shown how a supply-of-fraud function can be defined and estimated for individuals, and subsequently aggregated to derive crime rates for societies. Another approach is to explain the behaviour of fraudsters as rent-seekers, à la mode Gary Becker, and the problem of fraud may be seen as a case of market failure too. The paper also discusses some effects of fraud on society, and gives an empirical comparison between countries.

It was a different era when Gary Becker did his groundbreaking work on the economics of fertility, during the years from the late 1950 through the early 1990s. There was great concern then about the “population explosion” due to sustained high fertility in the developing world after mortality declined following World War II. In 1968, Paul Ehrlich published “The Population Bomb” predicting disaster and mass starvation due to rapid population growth: “The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s, the world will undergo famines – hundreds of millions of people are going to starve to death. . . .” Robert McNamara, then the President of the World Bank, in 1984 said “Short of thermonuclear war itself, population growth is the gravest issue the world faces over the decades immediately ahead. If we do not act, the problem will be solved by famine, riots, insurrection and war.”

RésuméAndré Masson propose de remplacer le « théorème » de l’altruisme générationnel de Gary Becker par une explication structurale qui est inspirée du célèbre Essai sur le don de Marcel Mauss (1923), celle des réciprocités indirectes entre trois générations. Il construit ainsi une critique feutrée des a priori moraux qui sous-tendent souvent les analyses des économistes libéraux (tels « l’effet de démonstration », le disenfranchisement ou la théorie de l’homo reciprocans). A. Masson, assumant les ambitions de la science économique, conserve cependant une conception plus concurrentielle que coopérative des sciences sociales et développe une analyse convaincante des fondements économiques et sociaux des transferts entre générations de nos jours. L’argument développé dans cette note critique propose à la fois une lecture historique de l’idéologie de l’équité intergénérationnelle, qui n’est pensable que dans le passage des Trente Glorieuses aux Trente Piteuses, et une lecture structurale qui argue que, pour les possédants de l’Ancien Régime européen, la réussite des transferts entre générations répondait aux mêmes exigences formelles qu’au XXIe siècle.
