Opis

This book sets out the foundations of Post Keynesian price theory. Frederic Lee examines the administered, normal cost and mark up price doctrines associated with Post Keynesian economics; he then draws upon those doctrines and previous empirical studies to develop the pricing and production foundations of the theory. This is the only book that is solely concerned with Post Keynesian price theory and its foundations, and represents a major contributon to the literature of post-Keynesian economics.

Recenzje
