Widening the Economic Approach to Hatred

Author

  • Samuel Cameron

Abstract

The economics of hate is a barely developed field. There is one paper overtly on the topic by Glaeser and several related papers on racism. war and other important topics. This paper considers the scope for taking the economic analysis of hate beyond the narrow confines of the neoclassical approach by Glaeser and those working in cognate areas.
