Economic Theories on Regulatory Economics - Dictionary of Arguments

Mause I 377
Regulatory Economics/coordination/Economic Theories: competitive markets as a decentralised coordination mechanism have a number of social advantages: they increase welfare (equipping the economy with scarce goods) through efficient allocation (distribution of production factors among suppliers), the creation of incentives for innovation (dynamic efficiency), the promotion of consumer sovereignty (adaptation of goods production to the preferences of consumers) and adaptive efficiency (adaptability of the economy to exogenous shocks and crises).
Moreover, economic freedom and competitive markets are interdependent (Röpke 1949; Eucken 1952).
