15 Mathematical Review
本书不仅全面而严谨地解释了主流微观经济学,还解释了为什么许多经济学家对它的主要方面不满意,以及他们正在探索的替代方案:古典凯恩斯主义-卡莱克主义方法。这本让读者能够掌握消费者、企业、不完全竞争、一般均衡、不确定性、博弈和不对称信息的标准理论。
此外,它还研究了亚当·斯密、大卫·李嘉图和卡尔·马克思倡导的价值和收入分配的古典方法,以及后凯恩斯主义定价理论和可变产能利用率的微观经济学。它使用简单的模型,强调了边际/新古典方法和古典凯恩斯主义之间重要差异的分析根源,批判性地审查了它们假设的合理性和相互一致性。本书还讨论了高级微观经济学教科书中通常未包括的各种微观经济问题,包括差别地租、联合生产长期定价、从瓦尔拉斯到剑桥辩论的资本理论、总生产函数的基础、劳动力市场的微观经济学以及长期工资理论。最后,它对福利经济学进行了独特的重新评估。
本书适用于高级本科生和研究生微观经济学课程,全面介绍了目前在经济理论背景下竞争的各种方法和不同思想流派。它也可以用于价值和分配、非正统经济学和经济分析史课程。在目前以科学不确定性和相互竞争的方法共存为特征的情况下,它将激发学生形成自己的观点,即从科学的角度来看哪种方法更有前景。
Description:
This textbook explains comprehensively and in rigorous detail not only mainstream microeconomics, but also why many economists are dissatisfied with major aspects of it, and the alternative that they are exploring in response: the Classical-Keynesian-Kaleckian approach. This advanced yet user-friendly book allows readers to grasp the standard theory of consumers, firms, imperfect competition, general equilibrium, uncertainty, games and asymmetric information. Furthermore, it examines the classical approaches to value and income distribution advocated by Adam Smith, David Ricardo and Karl Marx, as well as Post-Keynesian pricing theory, and the microeconomics of variable capacity utilization. Using simple models, it highlights the analytical roots of the important differences between the marginal/neoclassical approach and the classical-Keynesian, critically examining the plausibility and reciprocal consistency of their assumptions. The book also addresses various microeconomic issues not generally included in advanced microeconomics textbooks, including differential land rent, joint-production long-period pricing, capital theory from Walras to the Cambridge debates, the foundations of aggregate production functions, the microeconomics of labor markets, and the long-period theory of wages. Lastly, it presents a unique re-evaluation of welfare economics. Intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate microeconomics courses, this textbook offers a comprehensive introduction to the various approaches and different schools of thought currently competing in the context of economic theory. It can also be used in courses on value and distribution, heterodox economics, and the history of economic analysis. In the present situation, characterized by scientific uncertainty and the co-existence of competing approaches, it will stimulate students to form their own opinion as to which approach appears more promising from a scientific standpoint.
