Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lecture Notes on Economics and Politics Diamonds and pearls have great value, but almost no utility, as compared with their value. We often hear of "exchangeable value" and "intrinsic value." The former is value proper, the latter is utility. (5) 7. Value Not Price. Value and price are often confounded. Price is value in money. Money is itself a coinmodity; and, like every other saleable thing, has value. 8. The Measure Of Value. Men have differed widely in their views as to the true measure of value. The chief opinions are as follows: (1) Ricardo says it is labor, (2) Malthus, the labor which an article can command; (3) Adam Smith, corn; (4) J. S. Mill, the cost of production; (5) Carey, the cost of reproduction. 9. The Law Of Value. The, one universal principle of value is the Law of Demand and Supply. Demand is the desire of purchasing something coupled with the power of purchasing it. Supply is any class of exchangeable things offered for sale against money or other exchangeable things. As long as demand an supply are equal values are unchanged. When the demand for anything increases, the supply remaining the same, the value increases. When the supply increases, the demand remaining the same, its value diminishes. To increase the demand or diminish the supply has the same effect upon values. III. Production. 1. Definition Of Production. Production is effort with reference to a sale. As it is the effort to satisfy a desire, it is a creation of value. Only those efforts which aim at a sale are productive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on Political Economy Professors. Mr. M'vickar, of Columbia College, New York, has edited this abridgment, and added to the text some valuable notes. Now it is the apprehension of the efi'ect of that work (which is as far as it goes well cal culated for a popular manual) that has induced the author of the following sheets to publish the results of some investigations on the subject which were originally intended for his private use. They are given to the Press with every respect for the talents of Mr. Ricardo and those of his distinguished supporters. We are in fact well convinced that if the principles of this theory (which are founded on circumstances completely con trasted to those that are peculiar to our own country) should be adopted as texts for lectures in our Colleges and Universities, it will greatly retard the progress of this important science among us.

This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Disturbing Elements in the Study and Teaching of Political Economy The following lectures were delivered in the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, April 25-29, 1910, to the Economic Seminary, at whose desire, by the courtesy of the University, they are now printed. As the title suggests, they are discourses not on economic error in general, but on the more subtle fallacies which are apt to invade the reasoning of trained economists in spite of learning and discipline. Such errors creep in from a popular political philosophy (Lecture I), from want of any political philosophy (II), from mistaken aversion to theory (III), from the shortcomings of common or technical language (IV), and from the wrong handling of distinctions of time (V).

Download or read book Economics and Ageing written by José Luis Iparraguirre and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-11 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This upper level textbook provides a coherent introduction to the economic implications of individual and population ageing. Placing economic considerations into a wider social sciences context, this is ideal reading not only for advanced undergraduate and masters students in economics, health economics and the economics of ageing, but also policy makers, students, professionals and practitioners in gerontology, sociology, health-related sciences and social care. This volume introduces the different conceptualisations of age and definitions of `old age', as well as the main theories of individual ageing as developed in the disciplines of biology, psychology and sociology. It covers the economic theories of fertility, mortality and migration and describes the four main frameworks that can be used to study economics and ageing, namely the life cycle, the overlapping generations, the perpetual youth and the dynastic models.

Download or read book Economics in One Lesson written by Henry Hazlitt and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2010-08-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over a million copies sold, Economics in One Lesson is an essential guide to the basics of economic theory. A fundamental influence on modern libertarianism, Hazlitt defends capitalism and the free market from economic myths that persist to this day. Considered among the leading economic thinkers of the “Austrian School,” which includes Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises, Friedrich (F.A.) Hayek, and others, Henry Hazlitt (1894-1993), was a libertarian philosopher, an economist, and a journalist. He was the founding vice-president of the Foundation for Economic Education and an early editor of The Freeman magazine, an influential libertarian publication. Hazlitt wrote Economics in One Lesson, his seminal work, in 1946. Concise and instructive, it is also deceptively prescient and far-reaching in its efforts to dissemble economic fallacies that are so prevalent they have almost become a new orthodoxy. Economic commentators across the political spectrum have credited Hazlitt with foreseeing the collapse of the global economy which occurred more than 50 years after the initial publication of Economics in One Lesson. Hazlitt’s focus on non-governmental solutions, strong — and strongly reasoned — anti-deficit position, and general emphasis on free markets, economic liberty of individuals, and the dangers of government intervention make Economics in One Lesson every bit as relevant and valuable today as it has been since publication.

Download or read book Notes On The Theory Of Choice written by David Kreps and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Professor Kreps presents a first course on the basic models of choice theory that underlie much of economic theory. This course, taught for several years at the Graduate School of Business, Stanford University, gives the student an introduction to the axiomatic method of economic analysis, without placing too heavy a demand on mathematical sophistication.The course begins with the basics of choice and revealed preference theory and then discusses numerical representations of ordinal preference. Models with uncertainty come next: First is von Neumann?Morgenstern utility, and then choice under uncertainty with subjective uncertainty, using the formulation of Anscombe and Aumann, and then sketching the development of Savage's classic theory. Finally, the course delves into a number of special topics, including de Finetti's theorem, modeling choice on a part of a larger problem, dynamic choice, and the empirical evidence against the classic models.
