Neoclassical Economy

Although social sciences do not ignore sports altogether, they do not attempt to analyse the class position of players in team sports. Yerefore, the aim of this paper is to conduct such analysis. Ye starting point is introduction of the idea of socio-economic class based on the theory of economic ownership understood as rent. As the term "economic rent" is used in neoclassical economy, I explain the di>erences between that approach and the one used in this paper. Building on theory and on empirical data on the earnings of players, I conclude that while the sports elite undoubtedly represent ownership and bourgeoisie class, the less !nancially attractive leagues or less earning players represent workers owning labour and sometimes that ownership is severely limited.

Neoclassical Economy

The concept of capital is one of the most noticeable and at the same time the most unclear concepts organizing not only the field of social sciences, but also the public debate in Poland and in the world. The article analyses two ways of conceptualization of the capital rooted in political and neoclassical economy together with their sociological modifications. The aim of this short reconstruction is to present a complex relation between the economic capital and the social capital treated as moral capital. This ambiguity induces us to ask a question about the significance of shifting this concept from the field of economic analyses to the centre of sociological theories in the context of crisis and transformations of late capitalism.

This study aims to review, analyze, and systematize the knowledge created on bio-economy to develop a conceptual and theoretical framework based on the transdisciplinary study of biology and socioeconomy to be used in further research. It begins from the questioning of the benefits that bio-economy has compared to the neoclassical economy. The methods employed are critical analytic, descriptive, deductive-inductive, and it suggests holistic and transdisciplinary approaches. As a result, the core of the study presents the principles under which this new scientific paradigm in sustainable development can continue creating more scientific knowledge to be used in the formulation and implementation of strategic choices for the bio-production, bio-distribution, and bio-consumption processes.

Abstract Retroactive tax legislation is constitutional in most high-income countries. In this paper we are concerned with the fiscal and macroeconomic consequences stemming from retroactive income taxation. Within the context of a real neoclassical economy, we find that if the government can set taxes retroactively within the fiscal year—or if there is a positive probability that a future government will be able to use retroactive taxation—then there exists a multiplicity of expectations-driven equilibria. In this case, neither fiscal policy nor macroeconomic aggregates are uniquely pinned down by economic fundamentals. Rather, they are determined by expectations about current and future fiscal policy. This implies that the government is a source of macroeconomic instability. By contrast, a constitutional reform banning the government from using retroactive tax legislation would yield a unique equilibrium, thus removing the possibility of expectations-driven fluctuations.
