| dcterms.abstract | Economics offers powerful insights into the world in which we live. This level 2/3 economics course aims:
• To remind students of some of the economic theory that they have studied in previous modules, in particular the circumstances in which private markets will allocate resources efficiently
• To consider the justification for Government intervention in resource allocation
• To explain the circumstances in which insurance markets will operate efficiently
• To apply the theory to attain an understanding of social policy and social institutions
• To allow students to study aspects of the UK welfare state in depth | en_GB |
