The Economics of Privacy
A foundational new collection examining the mechanics of privacy in the digital age. The falling costs of collecting, storing, and processing data have allowed firms and governments to improve their products and services, but have also created databases with detailed individual-level data that raise privacy concerns.This volume summarizes the research on the economics of privacy and identifies open questions on the value of privacy, the roles of property rights and markets for privacy and data, the relationship between privacy and inequality, and the political economy of privacy regulation. Several themes emerge across the chapters. One is that it may not be possible to solve privacy concerns by creating a market for the right to privacy, even if property rights are well-defined and transaction costs are low.Another is that it is difficult to measure and value the benefits of privacy, particularly when individuals have an intrinsic preference for privacy.Most previous attempts at valuation have focused only on quantifiable economic outcomes, such as innovation.Finally, defining privacy through an economic lens is challenging.The broader academic and legal literature includes many distinct definitions of privacy, and different definitions may be appropriate in different contexts.The chapters explore a variety of frameworks for examining these questions and provide a range of new perspectives on the role of economics research in understanding the benefits and costs of privacy and of data flows.As the digital economy continues to expand the scope of economic theory and research, The Economics of Privacy provides the most comprehensive survey to date of this field and its next steps.

Rethinking Economics : An Introduction to Pluralist Economics
Economics is a broad and diverse discipline, but most economics textbooks only cover one way of thinking about the economy.This book provides an accessible introduction to nine different approaches to economics: from feminist to ecological and Marxist to behavioural.Each chapter is written by a leading expert in the field described and is intended to stand on its own as well as providing an ambitious survey that seeks to highlight the true diversity of economic thought.Students of economics around the world have begun to demand a more open economics education.This book represents a first step in creating the materials needed to introduce new and diverse ideas into the static world of undergraduate economics.This book will provide context for undergraduate students by placing the mainstream of economic thought side by side with more heterodox schools.This is in keeping with the Rethinking Economics campaign which argues that students are better served when they are presented with a spectrum of economic ideas rather than just the dominant paradigm.Rethinking Economics: An Introduction to Pluralist Economics is a great entry-level economics textbook for lecturers looking to introduce students to the broader range of ideas explored within the economics profession.It is also appropriate and accessible for people outside of academia who are interested in economics and economic theory.

Health Economics
This Element examines economic perspectives on improving quality and safety in healthcare.Though competition is generally recognised by economists as an important driver of improvement, it may not work so straightforwardly in healthcare – in part because some services are provided by very few organisations, but also because people are not always easily able to judge healthcare quality and rarely have to pay the full price for services.Different approaches for stimulating improvement are therefore needed, and the authors look at examples from the care home, primary care, and hospital sectors.They emphasise the need for economic evaluation of improvement efforts, based on the principle that improvement activities should only be undertaken if the benefits are worth at least the costs of implementing and running them.Using examples, they explain the economic approach to evaluating how benefits and costs of improvement efforts can be compared by applying cost-effectiveness analysis.This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
