In An Economic Approach to Social Capital, Edward Glaeser criticizes conventional ways of viewing social capital, studying it instead under a more economically driven lens. By developing models in which social capital is economically analyzed, Glaeser determines that the necessary definition of social capital, for his purposes, is to classify it as belonging to an individual, rather than its community. Through this concept of individual social capital, it becomes easier to understand how it is…

We choose to make them a part of us, a part of our sense of self. For example, someone may own a bible. The bible is considered physically theirs, as in it is of their property. However, the teachings of the bible may also be owned by said person. They choose to learn and remember what the bible offers, and in that, they make it a part of their own experience.

The current real estate marketlets discredited clients know…

Capitalism: For the Many, Not the Few, Robert B. Reich describes what he believes ails modern society. Major themes the book touches on include the so-called “free market,” describing the prevailing view, his building blocks of capitalism, the workings of property, monopoly, and contracts, and bankruptcy and associated enforcement mechanisms. He then moves on to work and worth: the myth that a person is paid equivalent to their value to society, how CEO and Wall Street pay do not adhere to…

couple own the sperm and eggs, they do not own the embryos and subsequently children made from them (McLachlan and Swales 2000: 3). Supporters of commercial surrogacy insist that parental rights are not property rights. As an illustration, take the example of selling a home.

terms fair market value and fair value are typically used in business-owner buy-sell agreements without proper consideration of the confusion these terms can cause.
