  Scale of Values Violates Singularism

  There is at the very least a tension between two basic building blocs of Austrian economics. The doctrine of singularism maintains that choice is inevitably and necessarily between two and only two things: that which is chosen, and the next best alternative, which is set aside. However, implicit in the concept the scale of values is the claim that ... There is at the very least a tension between two basic building blocs of Austrian economics. The doctrine of singularism maintains that choice is inevitably and necessarily between two and only two things: that which is chosen, and the next best alternative, which is set aside. However, implicit in the concept the scale of values is the claim that choice can take place over many, many alternatives. If one of these has to be jettisoned, and we argue that one must be, then we vote for the latter.

  The Law of Value and the Global Financial Crisis

  The modern world is in the vortex of an unprecedented as yet crisis. Nobody is capable of predicting neither the scope of the Slump nor its depth. Not to mention its duration. Most publications related to the global financial crisis concern only the external symptoms of the Slump without looking into its deep reasons and driving forces. Given ... The modern world is in the vortex of an unprecedented as yet crisis. Nobody is capable of predicting neither the scope of the Slump nor its depth. Not to mention its duration. Most publications related to the global financial crisis concern only the external symptoms of the Slump without looking into its deep reasons and driving forces. Given that, the risk of repeating the crisis in the foreseeable future is not only probable, but almost certain. This paper aims at focusing the attention of the leading economists, politicians and administrators to the forgotten laws and regularities of market economy, underlying and steering the driving forces of the global financial crisis.

  The Statistical Quality Control – European Alternative of Quality

  The implementation of the statistical methods for quality control of the technological processes is an important approach that ensures a substantial increase in the quality of the production.

The implementation of the statistical methods for quality control of the technological processes is an important approach that ensures a substantial increase in the quality of the production. The statistical methods for quality control are wide spread practice in the developed countries. On the contrary they are almost not implemented in the Bulgarian economy and as a result achieving high quality by the European standards is only a good intention. The survey performed in about 300 enterprises from the machinery construction industry in Bulgaria have shown that the statistical methods are unknown to the workers in that branch of industry and that they have not been implementing such methods in the practice despite their obvious advantages. Thus it is necessary for the Ministry of Economy and Energy to undertake practical steps on the implementation of statistical methods for quality control in the machinery construction enterprises by developing a “Strategy” in which to define the priorities of the Government, the measures and the financial resources that will ensure the training of specialists and the implementation of modern systems for quality management.
