The Government Economic Agenda in a Society of Unequally Rational Individuals
指出个体理性能力不平等且有限，市场和政府对其配置方式不同，从而分析政府应扮演的经济角色，结论与社会主义和古典自由主义意识形态相悖，但符合经济史中的两个谜题和实际政策中的意识形态妥协。
What economic roles, if any, should government play? This is still an incompletely analyzed issue that different individuals – depending on their ideologies, rent-seeking opportunities, and analytical abilities – may answer very differently. To advance its analysis, this paper recognizes that human rationality (as empirically testable cognitive abilities) is bounded unequally across individuals, and is therefore a unique scarce resource that markets and government allocate in significantly different ways. The results conflict with ideologies of both socialism and classical liberalism, but agree with two puzzles of recent economic history and with ideological compromises in actual economic policies.
