The phrase 'economic system' refers to the organizational
arrangements and processes through which a society makes its
production and consumption decisions. In this book, Professor
Conkin explores the diversity of economic systems and the choices
societies must face in determining the economic systems best suited
to their needs. He discusses the alternative objectives and
alternative decision modes that are available to societies.
Objectives such as efficiency, growth, liberty, and equality -
though themselves desirable - frequently involve trade-offs; the
more complete attainment of any one objective may involve the
partial sacrifices of another. In pursuit of its objectives, each
society uses a combination of decision modes. Professor Conklin
examines six of these: free enterprise, price controls, subsidies,
taxation, non-price regulations, and public enterprise. He ends
with a discussion of the processes societies use to make their
choice among objectives and decision modes.
