Book excerpt: Much of today's conventional macroeconomic theory presumes that markets for goods approach the state of perfect competition. Monopolistic Competition and Macroeconomic Theory assumes that markets are imperfect, so that sellers have some power over price, and must therefore form quantity expectations about the location of the firm's demand curve. The question is then about the macroeconomic implications of imperfect competition in goods markets. The first chapter is a brief survey of ideas proposed in economics including multiple equilibria. The second chapter describes a particular micro-based macro model that allows several families of equilibria. The third chapter shows how a standard locational model can be used to describe a sample macroeconomy when firms have close rivals. In this volume derived from his Federico Caffe Lecture, Nobel Laureate Robert Solow shows that there are simple and tractable micro-based models that offer the possibility of a richer and more intuitive macroeconomics.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume links a microeconomic model of imperfectly informed firms and unions in monopolistic competition to a general theory of wage- and price-setting in a macroeconomic model. The analysis is based on a profit maximization and rational behaviour and is thus in line with the newly emerged New Keynesian approach in its emphasis on the microeconomic foundation of macroeconomics. The volume goes on to explain three stylized facts in macroeconomics: nominal rigidity, real rigidity, and cost-oriented prices, presented in a coherent New Keynesian framework. The analysis also provides new insight into the role of competition in an economy with imperfectly and differentially informed firms. It shows that increased competition may increase nominal as well as real price rigidity and increased volatility of investment.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Models of imperfect competition contain the possibility of multiple equilibria when the markup of price over marginal cost is negatively dependent on activity. The model most often used in applied work, the Dixit and Stiglitz (1977) model, is usually thought not to be able to produce such an effect. However, this paper presents a macroeconomic model where free market entry of firms is considered in the generalized version of that model, originally due to Yang and Heijdra (1993) and d'Aspremont et al. (1996). A price index effect makes the markup depend on the number of firms which in turn depends on activity, so there may be multiple equilibria in this economy.

This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While traditional price theory has successfully elucidated national income distribution in a perfectly competitive economy, little is known today about the overall working of a noncompetitive economy. This book moves to remedy the imbalance by sketching a general equilibrium theory of a noncompetitive economy. Developing his theory in the world of the standard Leontief system, Hukukane Nikaido attempts to construct objective demand functions reflecting the interdependence of economic agents in the real world upon which the monopolist's control of prices or output ultimately depends.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Monopolistic Competition One sort of imperfect competition is known as monopolistic competition. In this type of competition, numerous producers compete against one another, but they provide items that are distinct from one another and, as a result, are not ideal substitutes. Monopolistic competition occurs when a company accepts the prices that are being charged by its competitors as indisputable and disregards the influence that its own pricing have on the prices that other companies charge. In the event that this occurs in the presence of a government that makes use of coercion, monopolistic competition will inevitably transform into monopoly granted by the government. The business, in contrast to ideal competition, keeps some capacity available for use. In the process of modeling industries, monopolistic competition models are frequently utilized. Examples of businesses that have market structures that are comparable to monopolistic competition can be found in textbooks. These industries include restaurants, cereals, apparel, shoes, and service industries particularly in large cities. Edward Hastings Chamberlin, who established the theory of monopolistic competition by publishing a groundbreaking book on the subject in 1933 titled Theory of Monopolistic Competition, is considered to be the "founding father" of the theory. A similar topic, namely the differentiation between perfect and imperfect competition, was the subject of a book written by Joan Robinson and titled The Economics of Imperfect Competition to be published. Additional research on monopolistic competition was carried out by Dixit and Stiglitz, who developed the Dixit-Stiglitz model. This model has been shown to be useful and has been utilized in the subfields of international trade theory, macroeconomics, and economic geography.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chamberlain's classic work, now in its eighth edition, continues to influence the fundamental thinking of economists and businessmen, and for the best of reasons: It is a basic treatise in theory which, unlike traditional theories of "perfect competition," deals with the economic world we live in, including both price and nonprice competition, oligopoly, various degrees of monopoly, "differentiated" products, advertising, etc. Its influence has spread extensively as well as intensively--to new theoretical problems, such as economic dynamics and development, and to the analysis of an increasingly wide range of the so-called "applied" fields. In this eighth edition of The Theory of Monopolistic Competition Professor Chamberlain has added three new appendices: The Definition of Selling Costs; Numbers and Elasticities; and The Origin and Early Development of Monopolistic Competition Theory. The index has been extensively revised and expanded. In successive earlier editions the author compiled a bibliography of 1497 items. He also added a new treatment of the cost curve of the firm, discussing in particular some current misconceptions as to the role of the laws of proportions and of the divisibility of factors in relation to economics and diseconomies of scale, and advancing a broader theory which assigns to both proportions and scale their proper roles.

Book excerpt: "Macroeconomics" builds a number of macroeconomic models applying the non-Walrasian methodology. The literature on the subject has grown so rapidly in recent years that it would be unreasonable to try to give an exhaustive account of all existing models in the field. We have thus chosen to present here some models that cover as large a number of questions as possible within a simple and unified framework. We also want to bridge the gap with traditional macroeconomics while extending the analysis on various points, which be investigated by purposely making each time the simplest possible assumptions about the formation of the various prices (or, when needed, expectations) involved. This will allow us to demonstrate in a straightforward manner the synthetic qualities of the theory, both by making a natural synthesis with traditional macroeconomics, where similar simple assumptions are made, and by treating a large number of topics while using throughout a very unified macroframework.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market Behaviour and Macroeconomic Modelling discusses several state-of-the-art developments in the modelling approach to market behaviour in macroeconomic modelling. Leading experts in this field, deal with the implications of market imperfections in commodity markets, capital markets and labour markets for macroeconomic modelling and stabilization policy. They demonstrate that incorporating market imperfections leads to very different policy recommendations than those derived from the standard perfect competition model.
