Book Synopsis Methodology for a New Microeconomics (Routledge Revivals) by : Lawrence A. Boland
Download or read book Methodology for a New Microeconomics (Routledge Revivals) written by Lawrence A. Boland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1986, this title argues that the successful development of a new microeconomics requires a deeper understanding of methodological individualism and its role in stability analysis. Lawrence Boland expounds a critique of neoclassical models, which, he contends, often fail to include an explicit stability analysis. He demonstrates that much of the sophisticated theoretical literature over the past thirty years can be understood as ad hoc attempts to overcome the deficiencies of such models in the absence of cogent stability analyses. In conclusion, he explains the need to update the theory taught at universities, and to develop a truly individualist version of microeconomics that is consistent with the methodological principles of major neoclassical models. An important contribution to economic methodology, this work is a highly valuable resource for all students and teachers of economics at the undergraduate level.

Book Synopsis Elements of Cost-Benefit Analysis (Routledge Revivals) by : E. J. Mishan

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, which was first published in 1972, is not a collection of case-studies in cost-benefit analysis, of which there had been already several in use employing techniques of varying degrees of sophistication. Nor is it a manual of instruction with particular orientation for less developed counties, such as those produced under the auspices of the U.N. and the O.E.C.D. What this volume does attempt is to introduce the student of economics to the logic and the concepts used in cost-benefit analysis.

Book Synopsis Essays in Economic Theory (Routledge Revivals) by : Vincent Crawford
Download or read book Essays in Economic Theory (Routledge Revivals) written by Vincent Crawford and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays in Economic Theory, first published in 1983, combines two essays on game theory and its applications in economics. The first, "Learning Behavior and the Noncooperative Equilibrium", considers whether an adaptive justification, like those commonly available for the optimization models frequently employed elsewhere in economics, can be found for the Nash noncooperative equilibrium. The second essay, "A Game of Fair Division", was motivated by the desire to find attractive methods for solving allocation problems and bargaining disputes that are simple enough to provide useful alternatives to existing methods. It studies in detail one such simple method: the classical "divide-and-choose" procedure. This book will be of interest to students of economics.

Download or read book The Stationary Economy (Routledge Revivals) written by James E. Meade and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1965, this is a reissue of the first volume in Professor Meade’s highly influential Principles of Political Economy, which aimed to provide an overview of economic analysis in light of contemporary developments in the subject. This volume is based on models of economic systems in which conditions are such as to make possible a state of perfect competition, in which there are no capital goods, in which consumers’ tastes, technical knowledge, and the size and composition of the goods are static.

Book Synopsis Efficiency Criteria for Nationalised Industries (Routledge Revivals) by : Alec Nove
Download or read book Efficiency Criteria for Nationalised Industries (Routledge Revivals) written by Alec Nove and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1973, Efficiency Criteria for Nationalised Industries asks by what criteria we should judge the efficiency of nationalised industries, what we mean by saying they should be run commercially and where the public interest should lie. In this work, Professor Nove believes we answer these questions incorrectly due to a lack of understanding of economic theory and a desire to relate real world economics to that of the text book. The author says many economists, in a world of indivisibilities, complementarities and systems, persist in thinking in terms of one-dimensional, fragmented marginalism. Professor Nove, who is known for his writings on the Soviet economy, raises many points relevant to the East as well as the West. His work contributes to the economics of socialism, while also making the case for greater realism in economic theory in general.
Book Synopsis The Controlled Economy (Routledge Revivals) by : James E. Meade
Download or read book The Controlled Economy (Routledge Revivals) written by James E. Meade and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1971 this volume applies the tools of static and of dynamic analysis (outlined in The Stationary Economy and The Growing Economy) to the control of a dynamic economy. This involves a discussion of subjects such as the theory of indicative planning, and the planning by the government of its monetary, fiscal, and incomes policies for the purposes of the short-run stabilization of the economy and of ensuring the best long-run use of the community’s resources. Special emphasis is laid on the planning of such policies in conditions in which many future events remain inevitably uncertain. This book considers these issues in relation to a competitive, free-enterprise economy; and little or no reference is made to problems of monopoly or of distinctions between social and private costs and benefits, due to indivisibilities and externalities in economic life.
Book Synopsis The Methodology of Economic Model Building (Routledge Revivals) by : Lawrence A. Boland
Download or read book The Methodology of Economic Model Building (Routledge Revivals) written by Lawrence A. Boland and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major methodological task for modern economists has been to establish the testability of models. Too often, however, methodological assumptions can make a model virtually impossible to test even under ideal conditions, yet few theorists have examined the requirements and problems of assuring testability in economics. In The Methodology of Economic Model Building, first published in 1989, Lawrence Boland presents the results of a research project that spanned more than twenty years. He examines how economists have applied the philosophy of Karl Popper, relating methodological debates about falsifiability to wider discussions about the truth status of models in natural and social sciences. He concludes that model building in economics reflects more the methodological prescriptions of the economist Paul Samuelson than Popper’s ‘falsificationism’. This title will prove invaluable to both students and researchers, and represents a substantial contribution to debates about the scientific status of economics.
Book Synopsis Unequal Treatment (Routledge Revivals) by : Mats Lundahl
Download or read book Unequal Treatment (Routledge Revivals) written by Mats Lundahl and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, written by two leading Swedish economists and first published in 1984, constitutes a threefold contribution to the expanding field of economic discrimination. In the first place, it summarizes different approaches to the economics of discrimination, from the beginning of the British debate on equal pay in the 1890s onwards. Secondly, the book contains analytical chapters that, taking the theory originated by Gary Becker as their point of departure, critique and develop the Beckerian theory in a number of ways; in particular, the phenomenon known as crowding is investigated in different models. Finally, the theories thus developed are applied to a concrete case of discrimination: that of apartheid in South Africa. This is a fascinating title that will be of value to any economics students researching the development of discrimination theory during the twentieth century in particular.
Book Synopsis Theories of Surplus and Transfer (Routledge Revivals) by : Helen Heslop
Download or read book Theories of Surplus and Transfer (Routledge Revivals) written by Helen Heslop and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1990, this is an analysis of the history of western economics from Petty to Supply-Side, through the prism of the controversies over productive labour and its product. It treats the early economists’ "productive-unproductive" dichotomies as shorthands for many other sets of distinctions relevant for boundaries, value and welfare. Central to the debates is the question of whether the economy is said to generate a ‘surplus’. Economists and politicians with views on these matters include the Physiocrats, Smith and Ricardo, Marx and his Soviet and western admirers, the marginalists, Keynes, Polanyi, Becker, and Reagan. The book maps the shifting emphases that economists and social thinkers have placed on markets and ‘mode’ of production generally. This reissue will be useful to students of economic thought, welfare theory and policy, growth economics and economic systems.
Book Synopsis Routledge Revivals: Economic Development and the Role of Women (1989) by : Ruth Taplin
Download or read book Routledge Revivals: Economic Development and the Role of Women (1989) written by Ruth Taplin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1989, this book provides a macro-micro approach to economic development -- taking account of multi-level linkages, both inter and intra, that had been missed by previous analyses. The author argues that these linkages demonstrate that social and economic change may occur from the "bottom up" household/family level and not just from the "top down" economic order level -- using women as a vehicle to illustrate this. In the first section, the expansive body of development literature is summarised and critically reviewed -- isolating the primary strengths and weaknesses. Case studies of Malaysia, the Chinese Commune and the Israeli Kibbutz demonstrate that a theory which combines the analysis of the organisation of work, kinship and ethnicity can accommodate the experience of women in an integrated manner that traditional development theory has failed to achieve.
Book Synopsis The Value Dimension (Routledge Revivals) by : Ben Fine
Download or read book The Value Dimension (Routledge Revivals) written by Ben Fine and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this edited collection, first published in 1986, focus on important debates surrounding the central Marxian problem of the transformation of values into prices. The collection brings together major contributions on the value theory debate from the decade prior to the book’s publication, and assesses the debate’s significance for wider issues. Value theory emerges as much more than a technical relation between labour time and prices, and the structure of the capitalist economy is scrutinised. This is a relevant and comprehensive work, valuable to students, academics and professionals with an interest in political and Marxist economy.
