It offers a unique framework that fits within the classical liberal tradition of affording citizens autonomy over their lives, so long as they do not abuse that freedom by imposing substantive harms on others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'A Political Economy of Behavioural Public Policy is packed with insights regarding the role of government. Adam Oliver's concerns with the role of reciprocity in human life take behavioural economics one step further. In his new version of political liberalism, ideally, governments free people to adopt their own views regarding how they can contribute to the happiness of others - and, as a by-product, they get a sense of worth from making such a contribution.' George Akerlof, Nobel Laureate in Economics, 2001\u003cbr\u003e'Adam Oliver's newest book, the coda to his trilogy, is essential reading for everyone interested in the political economy of behavioural public policy. Though rooted in classical liberalism, it articulates a coherent argument for limited government regulation to curb abuses of autonomy by those who would selfishly impose behaviourally informed harms on others, rather than to 'correct' behaviorally influenced choices. The book rewards readers with Oliver's insightful and provocative perspective.' B.
