Finance ✦ Penny’s Take
Intergenerational Equity and Sustainability
John E. Roemer · 2007
71/100
👍 Worth It
A serious collection of original economic theory tackling how today's choices on pensions, social security, and the environment ripple forward onto generations who don't get a vote yet. It's written by recognized economists for other economists, so expect heavy formalism rather than an easy read — but the substance is real.
