β¦ Synopsis
The most common mode of analysis in economic theory is to assume equilibrium. Yet, without a proper theory of how economies behave in disequilibrium, there is no foundation for such a practice. The first step in such a foundation is a theory of stability, and this book is primarily concerned with that subject. The author first reviews the older literature on the stability of general equilibrium and goes on to consider a more satisfactory general model in which agents realize that they are in disequilibrium and act on arbitrage opportunities. Topics explored along the way include optimal arbitrage behavior, the relation of perceived monopoly power to quantity constraints, and the role of money.

<p>This book discusses mathematical models for various applications in economics, with a focus on non-linear dynamics. Based on the authorβs over 50 years of active work in the field, the book has been inspired by models from the period between 1920 and 1950. Following a brief introduction to econom
This book addresses the gaps in undergraduate teaching of partial equilibrium analysis, providing a general equilibrium viewpoint to illustrate the assumptions underlying partial equilibrium welfare analysis. It remains unexplained, at least at the level of general economics teaching, in what sense
