A Poylcentral Social Order for Machines?
As a consequence of scientific specialisation economists tend to know quite little about computer science, and very often IT specialists are igoramuses of sorts in economics. Wagner's study tries successfully to bridge the gap between computer science and modern constitutional and institutional economics. Relying on Nobel-Prize Winner Hayek's seminal work on liberal and selforganizing social order the author gives a very accessible introduction into the prerequisits, principles and achievments of an order, that will most probably be of the greatest importance for the further development of IT: a liberal order of a society of free software-agents serving free human actors.
