Book Market relations and the competitive process

Download or read book Market relations and the competitive process written by Stan Metcalfe and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-30 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. There has been increasing interest and debate in recent years on the instituted nature of economic processes in general and the related ideas of the market, in particular the competitive process. This debate lies at the interface between two largely independent disciplines, economics and sociology, and reflects an attempt to bring the two fields of discourse more closely together. This book explores this interface in a number of ways, looking at the competitive process and market relations from a number of different perspectives. It includes a wide range of contributors, most of whom are leading writers and thinkers in the field. The book considers the social role of economic institutions in society and examines the various meanings embedded in the word 'markets', as well as developing arguments on the nature of competition as an instituted economic process, rather than as competition being something that disturbs norms or institutions. It goes on to consider the deeper and more involved connection between markets and cognition, explaining how institutions can ease cognitive difficulties, and the effect of culture on markets and competition is also fully studied. This book will be of vital use to students and academics working in the fields of economics, sociology and business studies. It sketches the agenda for future research about markets and the competitive process.

Book The Market Mechanism and Economic Reforms in China

Download or read book The Market Mechanism and Economic Reforms in China written by William Byrd and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-04 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This theoretical and empirical study of market-oriented reforms in Chinese industry since the late 1970s focuses on the expansion of the market mechanism in the allocation of industrial products and the concurrent decline of directive planning - a strategy that is a crucial component of the ambitious overall reform "package" that Chinese reformers are trying to implement. The expanding role of Chinese industrial goods has had major implications for the functioning and importance of planning which, the author argues, has become largely irrelevant in terms of direct control over short-term allocation.

Book How Markets Work

Download or read book How Markets Work written by Israel M. Kirzner and published by IEA Hobart Paper. This book was released on 1997 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last hundred years or so, the neo-classical school has come to dominate microeconomic thinking. Economists concerned with competition have taken refuge in increasingly complex models which emphasize the end-state of competitive equilibrium. This paper presents, in non-technical terms, an 'Austrian' view of how a market economy works. The writer of this book follows in the Austrian tradition as he tries to crystallize the theory of entrepreneurial discovery and of its implications for economic understanding and policy.

Book Understanding the Economic Basics and Modern Capitalism

Download or read book Understanding the Economic Basics and Modern Capitalism written by Dan Blatt and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UNDERSTANDING of the economic successes and failures of the past century and today begins here. Dan Blatt, after almost a half-century of accurate published economic forecasts, examines history's most important economic works. He shows why capitalist market mechanisms successfully raise billions out of poverty and why socialist and other administered alternatives flourish briefly and then collapse. UNDERSTANDING begins with the basic texts: An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, by Adam Smith; The Principles of Political Economy and Taxation, by David Ricardo; Capital (Das Kapital), by Karl Marx; The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, by John Maynard Keynes; Capitalism, Socialism, and Democracy by Joseph A. Schumpeter. The analysis is readily comprehensible for college level readers and busy professionals. The style facilitates speed-reading and scanning but with liberal inclusion of quoted material covering the key ideas and most famous passages. Understanding the Economic Basics and Modern Capitalism is your source for rapid familiarity with these basic works and the reasons for the repetitive failure of current economic policies.

Book E market Mechanism Design for Supply Chain Management

Download or read book E market Mechanism Design for Supply Chain Management written by Masabumi Furuhata and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis investigates the problem of market mechanism design for supply chain management and e-marketplace development. Firstly, we consider how to design a market mechanism design for capacity allocation. We examine the game-theoretic properties of allocation mechanisms, such as efficiency, profit maximisation, and truth-telling, with respect to quantity competition and price competition in a related market of the supply chain. We find that a few typical allocation mechanisms are sensitive to supply chain settings. We design a new allocation mechanism for supply chains with quantity competition and prove that it is a truth-telling mechanism. Secondly, we investigate the design of market mechanisms for online markets. We introduce an approach to the modelling of online markets as supply chains, in which a coordination mechanism is applied to the market between the online market owner and the sellers. We design a new online market contact based on the idea of profit-sharing and prove that it achieves coordination with advertisement. Finally, we introduce an experimental approach to the design, analysis and implementation of market mechanisms based on double auction. We define a formal market model that specifies the market policies in a double auction market. Based on this model, we introduce a set of criteria for the evaluation of a market mechanism. We design and implement a set of market policies and test them with different experimental settings. The results of experiments provide us a better understanding of the interrelationship among the market policies and also show that an experimental approach can greatly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of market mechanism design.
