This book provides an in-depth look at the primary foundations of
economics explored through the lens of the Pawnee Department of
Parks and Recreation. Each episode of the hit television series,
Parks and Recreation, includes material to help an eager learner
understand the basics of one of the most fascinating fields of
study. Whether you've wondered how economists determine
specialization or why fast-food restaurants continue to pop up
around your neighborhood, the same situations have occurred in
Pawnee. Each chapter highlights key scenes or major episodes that
demonstrate how the characters experience economics in exactly the
same way the rest of us do. This text primarily builds on the
debates that take place between Leslie, Ron, and their co-workers,
while also exploring key questions such as whether governments
should try to help people through direct intervention or sell off
all the swings to private corporations and let businesses handle
day-to-day decisions. Learn how incentives can make Jerry appear to
be a more productive employee short-term, but end up causing chaos.
Do you wonder what it would be like to live in the early 1800s?
Thankfully Leslie has already done that for us. This book is a
must-read for anyone looking for a fun way to learn the principles
of economics, including as a supplementary text, and for all fans
of Parks and Recreation. Take the advice of Tom and Donna and treat
yo' self to this key read.
