Essays on Inflation

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This volume contains articles on the subject of inflation, most of which originally appeared in the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond`s Economic Review. Collectively the articles summarize the major issues current in contemporary discussions of the inflation problem. Topics covered include theories of inflation, reasons for its persistence, models of the inflationary transmission mechanism, the relationship between inflation and unemployment, the formulation of inflationary expectations, inflation and the demand for money, interest rates and inflation, international aspects of inflation under fixed and floating exchange rates, and the feasibility of alternative anti-inflationary policies. These topics are examined from the perspective of the history of economic doctrines as well as from that of modern economic analysis. The purpose is to indicate the basic similarities in classical and current analyses of inflation and to demonstrate that virtually all of the ideas, arguments, and… [detailed...]

Michael Visser
Essays on Market Experiments

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: While the topics of the three essays in this dissertation vary widely, the methodology and purpose of each chapter is common. Laboratory methods are employed to better understand how people respond to incentives, adding to the ability of economics to explain human behavior. The first essay seeks to determine whether potential sellers are able to anticipate and take advantage of the `Winner`s Curse`. The second essay involves an experimental test of Gary Becker`s rational criminal behavior theory using a revealed preference framework in the spirit of the practical economics started by Paul Samuelson. I find that choices are consistent with revealed preference axioms, and thus rational, allowing for estimation of demand for stolen loot. This further lends support to the idea that economic models can explain criminal behavior. The third essay presents an experiment designed to determine the effects of contract convexity on an executive`s decision making process, relative to an… [detailed...]

Essays on Microeconomics and Industrial Organisation (Contributions to Economics)

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionEssays on Microeconomics and Industrial Organisation aim to serve as a source and work of reference and consultation for the field of Microeconomics in general and of Industrial Organisation in particular. Traditionally, Microeconomics isessentially taught as theory and hardly ever an estimation of a demand, production and cost function is offered . Over the last two decades, however, Microeconomics has greatly broadened its field of empirical application. Therefore, this text combines microeconomic theories with a variety of empirical cases. The standardised microeconomic analysis of demand, production and costs is set forth along with appropriate econometric techniques. The text consists of four parts: Demand, Production and Costs (Supply), Market and Industrial Structure and Failure of Market and Industrial Regulation. It includes eleven new chapters with respect to the first edition. [detailed...]

Laurence J. Kotlikoff
Essays on Saving, Bequests, Altruism, and Life-cycle Planning

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: This collection of essays, coauthored with other distinguished economists, offers new perspectives on saving, intergenerational economic ties, retirement planning, and the distribution of wealth. The book links life-cycle microeconomic behavior to important macroeconomic outcomes, including the roughly 50 percent postwar decline in America`s rate of saving and its increasing wealth inequality. The book traces these outcomes to the government`s five-decade-long policy of transferring, in the form of annuities, ever larger sums from young savers to old spenders. The book presents new theoretical and empirical analyses of altruism that rule out the possibility that private intergenerational transfers have offset those by the government. While rational life-cycle behavior can explain broad economic outcomes, the book also shows that a significant minority of households fail to make coherent life-cycle saving and insurance decisions. These mistakes are compounded by reliance… [detailed...]

Essays on Supply Chain Management - Integration, Information, and Customer

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: To fulfill the purpose of satisfying customer requirements as efficiently as possible, the area of supply chain management has been broadened substantially in the past decade. A lot of efforts are now shifted to study the integration of activities in key supply chain processes. Moreover, quite some activities, which are considered independent previously, are now taken into consideration with supply chain management. This book follows this trend. We first develop efficient algorithms for the joint transportation and inventory control problem for a single-warehouse multi-retailer inventory system with full truckload shipment. Then we study the role that information plays in a joint production, procurement and inventory control problem for a firm that satisfies stochastic demand through remanufacturing. Finally, we study the impact of customer profile on the profitability of remanufactured products. The new insights offered in these studies should be helpful to professionals in supply… [detailed...]

Richard Cantillon
Essays on the Nature of Commerce in General

2001 y.
Publisher: Transaction Publishers
Description: Richard Cantillon is one of the key figures in the early history of economics. He was certainly not the first to think about economic problems, but he was the first to have clear insight into the way the economy functions as a system. He was arguably thefirst to structure a theory of how the economy works. In this sense he could be called the first real economist. Today, his ideas on population, determination of prices, wages and interest, the role of the entrepreneur, banking, and the influence of money supply on the economy are increasingly quoted and appreciated. This is a translation of the ssai sur la nature du commerce en gnral his only surviving work. It was circulated in manuscript form for many years after his death and was extremely influential, albeit not well known, at least throughout the eighteenth century. Essays on the Nature of Commerce in General shaped the development of economics through its formative influence on Franois Quesnay and Adam Smith. It is a… [detailed...]

Essays on the World Trade Organization Dispute Settlement Understanding - How (Not) to Sell the Right to Retaliate - The Effects of Interested Third Party Participation in WTO Disputes

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute settlement system can be viewed as a major achievement of the 1986 Uruguay Round. Especially in the ongoing dispute settlement understanding (DSU) review, WTO member countries have raised many issues, suggestions, and requests that promise to further improve the functioning of the dispute settlement system. Many of the proposals under review concern either different kinds of remedies that can be awarded as a response to a violation, or the access of member countries to the dispute settlement process. From the proposals that have been submitted over the years, two requests stand out and deserve particular attention since their potential effects are complex and unexplored: Mexico`s proposal in 2002 that WTO retaliation rights should be made tradable, and the request for increased third party participation in disputes. This book examines these two issues in detail and provides answers on whether and how the right to retaliate can be made… [detailed...]

Essence of Creativity: A Guide to Tackling Difficult Problems

1990 y.
Publisher: Oxford University Press
Description: Challenging problems both attract and repel us. They frustrate us, accelerate our pulses, cause ulcers, and perhaps even curtail our lifespans. On the other hand, the knotty problems of life offer us food for thought, sustaining our creativity, and adding emotional spice to the human experience. We encounter difficult tasks day in and day out. The solutions to these problems must be sought with resourcefulness and creativity, for until now we have had little insight into the nature of these tasks, and even less into methods for resolving them. This unique book explores the nature of challenging problems in all walks of life, and describes the creative techniques for addressing them. It is particularly relevant for problems that admit no obvious solution, whether they concern scientific knowledge, technology, the arts, or social situations. By understanding the dynamics of problem solving in general, the author argues, we can better organize the pursuit of specific projects. The… [detailed...]
