Do you think that Cyril Parkinson's notions (as well as the F-laws of Russell Ackoff) can be regarded as predecessors of the insights of behavioural economics?

David George DeLancey Art Economics History

10:A.M. E.S.T. Hyannis Ma.

Cyril Parkinson's was in the British Civil Service. Then he percued the Parkinson's Law. He describes the rate bureaucracies expand over time. I suggest that he as well doing the knowledge in different manners concerning Behavioural Economics had evolved in the course of it and perhaps most things that accure from Cyril Parkinson's have Behavioural properties and Economical properties.

 

F-Laws of Russell Ackoff he is a pioneer in Management Science, Operation research, systems thinking. Throughout the years Ackoff work in research, consulting and education has involved more than 250 corporations and 50 governmental agencies in the U.S. and abroad. Doing these activities Russell Ackoff has indeed performed many aspects of Behavioural Economics.

 

So I persay that it is more then likely that both these Gentlemen have experience in Behvioural Economics.
