Book Description
A timeless classic of economic theory that remains fascinating and pertinent today, this is Frank Knight's famous explanation of why perfect competition cannot eliminate profits, the important differences between "risk" and "uncertainty," and the vital role of the entrepreneur in profitmaking. Based on Knight's PhD dissertation, this 1921 work, balancing theory with fact to come to stunning insights, is a distinct pleasure to read. FRANK H. KNIGHT (1885-1972) is considered by some the greatest American scholar of economics of the 20th century. An economics professor at the University of Chicago from 1927 until 1955, he was one of the founders of the Chicago school of economics, which influenced Milton Friedman and George Stigler.

Book Description
This book brings together the work of scholars who have written for it independent essays in their areas of particular expertise in the general field of income distribution. The first eight chapters provide a review of the major theories of income distribution, while the final two are con cerned with problems of empirical estimates and inferences. One of these chapters presents estimates of factor shares in national income in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada, while the other ex amines how relationships between the size distribution of income and economic development are being investigated. A convenient way of conveying an understanding of how economic theorists have dealt with the distribution of income is to examine separ ately each major approach to this subject. Each contributor was thus assigned a particular approach, or a major theorist. No attempt was made to avoid the apparent duplication that occurs when the same references are examined by different contributors. The reader gains by seeing how the same material can be treated by those looking at it from different perspectives. A chapter each has been devoted to Marx and Marshall.

Book Description
Thomas Piketty's Capital in the Twenty-First Century puts forth a logically consistent explanation for changes in income and wealth inequality patterns. However, while rich in data, the book provides no formal empirical testing for its theoretical causal chain. In this paper, I build a set of Panel SVAR models to check if inequality and capital share in the national income move up as the r-g gap grows. Using a sample of 19 advanced economies spanning over 30 years, I find no empirical evidence that dynamics move in the way Piketty suggests. Results are robust to several alternative estimates of r-g.

Book Description
This Book Is An Exercise In Pure Theory At The Micro-Level. Abandoning The Traditional Concept Of Profit, As Being The Residual Difference Between Revenue And Cost, The Book Examines In Detail New Concepts Of Profit And Attempts At Determining The Behaviour Of Firms (Where Management And Ownership Is Separated) In Terms Of These New Profit Concepts. The Entire Gamut Of The Theories Of The Firm And The Theories Of Pricing And Output Determination Under Different Market Conditions Is Examined, To Establish How Conventional Analysis Leaves No Room For Firm S Growth, As The Surplus Generated By A Firm Exhausts Itself In Returns To Factor Inputs. A General Theory Of Profit Is Then Presented And The Relationship Between Profit And Other Variables, Notably Growth Is Examined, Within A Firm. An Attempt Is Made To Resolve The Conflict That May Arise In The Managerial Objectives And The Objectives Of The Firms (In The Long-Run) Where Ownership Is Separate From Management. Amitabha Mukherjee After A Distinguished Academic Career Obtained A First Class Master S Degree In Economics From Ranchi University (1976). He Obtained His Second Master S Degree In Managerial Economics And Administrative Science From William Marsh Rice University, Houston (1978). He Studied Comparative Economic And Political Stystems In Washington (1978). He Was Awarded His Ph.D. For His Thesis On Behaviour Of Firms (1983). He Carried Out His Post-Doctorate Research At Rice (1985) And At The University Of South Florida, Tampa, Florida, U.S.A. (1987).

Book Description
In Capital Accumulation and Income Distribution, economist Donald J. Harris offers a profound analysis of the forces shaping economic growth, capital accumulation, and income inequality within capitalist economies. Blending insights from Marxian and Keynesian economics, this pioneering work delves into the intricate relationships between investment, labor, and wealth distribution, highlighting the structural contradictions inherent in capitalist systems. Harris examines the driving factors behind capital accumulation and their implications for economic development, while providing a critical view of how profits, wages, and rents are distributed across social classes. Through a synthesis of classical economic theories, he explores the long-term dynamics of inequality and the cyclical patterns of capitalist economies. Ideal for scholars, students, and anyone interested in political economy, Capital Accumulation and Income Distribution offers a groundbreaking perspective on the economic challenges and imbalances that continue to shape our world today.
