[governance] Considering governance

[Deirdre Williams]

I subscribe to the World Economics Association
<http://www.worldeconomicsassociation.org/>'s Economic Thought.
There are two articles in the latest issue which, although they have
nothing to do with the internet, have interesting perspectives on
governance.
The first is On the Renting of Persons: The Neo-Abolitionist Case Against
Today’s Peculiar Institution
<http://p.feedblitz.com/t3.asp?/763931/8343874/4916334/et.worldeconomicsassociation.org/papers/on-the-renting-of-persons-the-neo-abolitionist-case-against-todays-peculiar-institution/>

*David Ellerman, *
the second
‘Animal Behavioural Economics’: Lessons Learnt From Primate Research
<http://p.feedblitz.com/t3.asp?/763931/8343874/4916334/et.worldeconomicsassociation.org/papers/animal-behavioural-economics-lessons-learnt-from-primate-research/>

*Manuel Wörsdörfer *
The second considers self-interest vs altruism as was discussed last year
on the list - Karl and Garth are the main names I remember - and which
seems to be coming up again in discussion of democracy and
multistakeholderism (in fact I believe that was the context last year too.)
