Title

Macroeconomic change : information and knowledge

Abstract

Considers the conceptual problems of information and knowledge in the context of 20th century economic theories. Whilst information as a commodity tends to be too complex to be articulated within neoclassical economic models, such models still provide the framework for economic arguments. Of central importance is the idea of the market as a transmitter of information. Keynes' approach advocated government intervention to address the problem of market information failure and to return the economy to equilibrium. Conversely, the philosophical position of the New Right is that state intervention is unnecessary and that an unfettered market, closely tied to a 'spontaneous order' is both a suitable conveyor of information and provides a means for the fficient allocation of resources. Argues that, paradoxically, given the information problems inherent in economic theory, the free market requires an active and interventionist State to operate efficiently
