Opis

This book considers the treatment of equilibrium by several of the most important schools of thought in economics, including: * neoclassical economics, * the neo-Ricardian economics, * Post-Keynesian economics - both those who follow Joan Robinson in denying any interpretative role to equilibrium in economic theorizing and those who use the notion of equilibrium, but re-defined from a Classical or Keynesian perspective.
