“Dezvoltarea durabilă”, preocupare emanând explicit mai cu seamă din zona policy-oriented a reflecţiei economice decât din cea business-oriented, pare să fie astfel sălaşul unui soi de paradox acţional. Prin natura ei, confiscatorie şi redistributivă, politica este mai îndrăgostită de termenele scurte, pe când piaţa nu poate ţinti lărgirea spaţiului de prosperitate decât luându-şi timpurile lungi drept aliat (bun venit în lumea logicii capitalului!). Desigur, şi politica se poate impregna de morbul durabilităţii fiindcă fie şi exproprierea trebuie disciplinată de reguli transpartinice ale jocului democraţiei (bun venit în lumea logicii constituţionale!). Dar durabilitatea nu este o problemă a relaţiei geo-bio-fizico-chimice dintre om şi “mediu”, ci una a relaţiei predictibile instituţional dintre om şi om/societate/specie.
INSTITUTIONALLY SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT [DEZVOLTARE (ECONOMICĂ) DURABILĂ (INSTITUŢIONAL)]

Institutions are the rules that guide social interactions. By creating incentives or constraints, they guide human actions in the social cooperation process. Society is a reflection of social cooperation and becomes, in fact, the expression of the existing institutional frame. In this paper, this general and valid hypothesis is applied for the analysis of education.
Keywords: institutions, human action, social cooperation, education, methodological individualism

By nuancing the Austrian School, Misesian theory of interventionism with the actions of political entrepreneurs, particularly by emphasizing the logic behind political action, the paper will attempt to present a realist theory of political integration, while defending the Misesian theory of interventionism against allegations of never reaching either one of the predicted outcomes: socialism or laissez-faire.
Keywords: interventionism, free market, political integration, economic integration

Following the credit boom which ended with the global crisis, most of the European economies have faced a credit crunch which strongly affected economic growth. In its turn, growth slowdown has hindered credit recovery, generating a vicious circle. This paper explores the causal relationship between domestic credit and domestic product, for a sample of European countries (2004-2013).
Keywords: credit, money supply, economic growth

Analytical dilemmas related to what has been established over time to be the European Social Model and its reverberations at public policies level, especially in the context of European economic integration process, were revived amid the great and deep challenges facing all societal actors by the economic and financial crisis whose magnitude has increased since the second half of 2008.

In the economic (more generally, social) domain the factual testing of the opinions (either theories or hypotheses) is compromised by at least five non-orthodoxies: non-invariance of the initial conditions, teleology (purposes), hermeneutics of the factual experience, normativity inside the explanation, and non-verifiability of the isomorphism model-phenomenon.
Keywords: truth, reasonability, normativity, hermeneutics

In the first part (§§1-3), based on the ontological and epistemological problems and solutions and on the analysis of the philosophical grounds of three main schools of economics, exposed in the previous papers, a short overview of the philosophy of the multilevel reality is undertaken. It is shown that the hierarchy of the sciences is not only formal, but corresponds to a true organization of the reality.
Keywords: ontology, levels of reality, epistemology, dialectics, natural and social sciences

Găsesc onorant pentru ştiinţa pe teritoriul căreia îmi consum energia ca un matematician, cu aplecare reală spre filosofare, să intre în acest perimetru şi să-i răscolească, calificat, intimităţile. Mă refer la profesorul universitar Alexandru Popovici şi la ştiinţa economică căreia, pe registre riguroase ale epistemologiei, încearcă să-i dezvăluie sensuri şi adâncimi mai puţin bănuite.
