Laissez-faire

Mainstream economics presupposes that the market is, in conditions of perfect competition, an automatic mechanism for resource allocation that leads to allocative efficiency, that is, allows the maximization of consumers welfare with available resources. On this basis, liberal economists tend to defend that public powers should abstain from intervening in or regulating the market, assuming that the result of any intervention will distort resource assignation and cause efficiency and welfare losses for society. Nevertheless, even those economists who are most staunchly in favour of the free market acknowledge that there are situations in which laissez-faire, the inhibition of the public powers, is not the best course of action.

As the Second World War approached, and even more once it had passed, the dangers of unchecked industrial pollution were widely sensed. Engineers and managers inside the chemical industry knew far more than the public, and the leaders of major companies like DuPont and Dow understood the need for action. But the extreme laissez-faire political beliefs of the industry s top management led them to reject federal environmental controls. They insisted that environmental control should be a state and local matter, leaving regulators hobbled by political pressure and the threat that factories could relocate to friendlier jurisdictions. Absent effective outside regulation, the industry would make its own decisions. 

Throughout this book I have touched on the statist-socialist bias that underlies much of the discussion about health-care policy and public health, exemplified by Nobel Laureate Kenneth J.

Most academic physicians now champion statist medicine as the embodiment of a higher, altruistic morality. Leon Eisenberg, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard, calls Milton Friedman the high priest of laissez-faire capitalism, as if capitalism were self-evidently sinful, and concludes his plea for socialist medicine with this self-flattering outcry Will we try to save our skins by delivering minimally adequate care on the cheap or will we stand up and be counted in the fight for universal health insurance 39...

Thus, according to the full range leadership model, every leader displays each style to some degree. Three-dimensional optimal and suboptimal profiles are shown in Figure 3. The depth frequency dimension represents how often a leader displays a style of leadership. The horizontal active imension represents the assumptions of the model according to which the laissez-faire style is the most passive style, whereas transactional leadership incorporates more active styles and transformational leadership is proactive. The vertical effectiveness dimension is based on empirical results that...
