Ricardo - The New View - Collected Essays I (Hardcover, New)

This volume contains 21 of Hollander's papers on the economics of David Ricardo. They explicate and defend against criticism emanating from conventional marginalists and Neo-Ricardians. The study perceives of pricing in terms of a theory of the co-ordination of decentralized economic activities which entails the interaction of product and factor markets; market processes are seen as dictating the secular paths of the wage and profit rate subject to the scarcity of land. The volume includes essays on: Sraffa's famous rational reconstruction of the early Ricardo in terms of the corn profit model; responses to the reviewers of The Economics of David Ricardo; detailed analyses of Ricardian micro and macro theory; and discussion of Ricardo's reception by his contemporaries providing further evidence of the so-called continuity thesis.
