  • Law, Informal Rules and Economic Performance

    Svetozar Pejovich, Enrico ColombattoBOOKLaw, Informal Rules and Economic…2008

    Capitalism has outperformed all other systems and maintained a positive growth rate since it began. Svetozar Pejovich makes the case within this book that a major reason for the success of capitalism lies in the efficiency-friendly incentives of its basic institutions, which continuously adjust the rules of the game to the requirements of economic progress. The analysis throughout is consistent and is supported by evidence. Key components of the …

    The Yugoslav experiment with labor participation in the management of business firms captured worldwide attention. The critics of capitalism seemed confident that the labor-managed economy would provide a long-sought alternative to the accomplishments of capitalism. Instead, the labor-managed economy has produced a crisis of enormous proportion in Yugoslavia. The article argues that the economic crisis in Yugoslavia is a predictable consequence o…

  • The Economics of Vocational and Technical Education

    I A Ghazalah, Svetozar PejovichARTICLEReview of Social Economy1973

    The role of structural factors in the national unemployment experi? ence in recent years [Killingsworth, Galla way] suggests the importance of updating the supply of labor services. Technological change as well as shifts in consumers' preferences with respect to final goods have brought about changes in relative demand schedules for various types of labor services. The resulting unemployment could then be effectively reduced and relief brought to…

  • Technical Progress and Technical Schools

    Svetozar PejovichARTICLEReview of Social Economy1968

Some people, to be sure, do not immediately share in the benefits of higher output. They find their old jobs outdated by the new techniques and are forced to choose between unemployment at the old wage or employment at a lower wage. If we take as…
