In A Mathematical Formulation of the Ricardian System, Pasinetti (1960) lays out the foundations of what has been dubbed the canonical classical model. He proves the model to be logically consistent and determinate in all its macro-economic features, and derives the solutions for all key...

This paper proposes a textual analysis of Marshall’s theory of firm pricing behavior under competitive conditions. It considers to what extent average cost and marginal cost pricing rules characterize Marshall’s competitive partial equilibrium, and it shows that the two rules differ for...

The idea that capital flows accelerate and decelerate in response to differential rates of return on real investment is common to virtually all of economic theory. This paper examines the nature of this process, especially the relationship between returns in the stock market and returns on real...
