	Neoclassical economics - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Neoclassical economics is the grouping of a number of schools of thought in economics.
		Neoclassical economics is conventionally dated from William Stanley Jevons' Theory of Political Economy (1871), Carl Menger's Principles of Economics (1871), and Leon Walras's Elements of Pure Economics (1874 – 1877).
		Neoclassical economics is also often seen as relying too heavily on complex mathematical models, such as those used in general equilibrium theory, without enough regard to whether these actually describe the real economy.

		Neoclassical economics refers to a general approach (a "metatheory") to economics based on supply and demand which depends on individuals (or any economic agent) operating rationally, each seeking to maximize their individual utility or profit by making choices based on available information.
		Roy Weintraub, neoclassical economics rests on three assumptions, although certain branches of neoclassical theory may have different approaches: E. Roy Weintraub is a professor of economics at Duke University.
		From these three assumptions, neoclassical economists have built a structure to understand the allocation of scarce resources among alternative ends -- in fact understanding such allocation is often considered the definition of economics to neoclassical theorists.

		Neoclassical economics emphasizes equilibria, where equilibria are the solutions of individual maximization problems.Regularities in economies are explained by methodological individualism, the doctrine that all economic phenomena can beultimately explained by aggregating over the behavior of individuals.
		Neoclassical economics is also often seen as relying too heavily on complex mathematical models, such as those used in general equilibrium theory, without enough regard to whetherthese actually describe the real economy.
		This is echoed bymodern critics in the anti-globalizationmovement who often blame the neoclassical theory, as it has been applied by the IMF inparticular, for inequities in global debt and trade relations.

	Austrian School (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Austrian economists developed a sense of themselves as a school distinct from neoclassical economics during the economic calculation debate, with Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich von Hayek representing the Austrian position, where they contended that without monetary prices or private property meaningful economic calculation was impossible.
		One, exemplified by Hayek, while distrusting of many neoclassical concepts, generally accepts their formulations, the other exemplified by the Ludwig von Mises Institute, seeks a different formalism for economics.
		For example, while neoclassical economics formalizes the economy as an equilibrium system with supply and demand in balance, Austrian economists emphasize its dynamic, perpetually dis-equilibrated nature.

	Peter J. Boettke (NYU) - Working Papers
		The neoclassical project that was begun in the 1870s sought to derive economic laws from the foundational proposition that economic agents base their decisions on their subjective evaluation of the situation.
		Neoclassical writers would agree that the world is not like the core model, but they insist that the model is useful and that abstraction is necessary in science.
		But, the Austrians are part of a neoclassical heritage and as such their research program is closely wedded to one of instrumental rationality models of human agency, an appreciation of systematic market forces, and a project designed to explain the social processes that emerge as the unintended by-product of the rational choices of individuals.

	Fred Foldvary on Ricardo and Marshall are Brothers
		The economic model Ricardo developed was the heart of classical theory until classical economics was overturned by the neoclassical revolution at the end of the 1800s.
		Neoclassical economists call the upper triangle, between the supply curve and the price line, the "producer surplus." It is the extra revenue left over after paying for labor and capital goods, which is surplus because the producers would supply the good if they just got a return for their labor and capital goods.
		But the classical economists clearly labeled it "land rent," while the neoclassical economists, having only "producers" in their model, call it a "producers' surplus" even though the producers are not getting the surplus, but rather the landowners.

	UNRISD: Publications \| The Need to Rethink Development Economics
		Although there was little in common between the actual analytical content of Keynesian doctrine and that of development economics, the two approaches shared critical views of neoclassical economic theory, and the related acceptance of state intervention.
		They also had in common the understanding that the economy described by neoclassical economists was a “special case”, and there were many other economies that could be “stylized” by entirely different models because they were characterized by different structural features.
		It is perhaps not surprising that the neoclassical counterrevolution and the ascendancy of monetarism in the advanced industrial countries during the late 1970s and early 1980s led to the rejection of development economics in the South.

	The Keynesian Revolution
		Neoclassical economics could coexist with Keynesianism as long as it was recognized as a special theory which was applicable under conditions of full employment while Keynes would supply a general theory that was capable of explaining lapses from full employment.
		For neoclassical economists, the solution was to rename their standard theories microeconomics and add a new section to the textbooks which would be called macroeconomics.
		Neoclassical economics was relabled Microeconomics and Keynesian economics came to be called Macroeconomics.

	The Neoclassicals: Introdution
		The dating of this "revolution" is commonly ascribed to 1871-74, when the concept of diminishing marginal utility was introduced by William Stanley Jevons, Carl Menger and Léon Walras, to pin down the character of demand -- thus the term "Marginalist".
		The Neoclassical story is often captured in diagrammatic form by the idea that equilibrium prices and quantities of goods are determined jointly and simultaneously by the demand and supply for those goods.
		The "Neoclassical" approach to economics, thus, is not one, great, well-defined theory, but rather can be regarded as a family of approaches -- all of which share the core 12 points mentioned earlier, but differ considerably on other topics such as macroeconomics, money, dynamics, mathematics, etc. Neoclassicism is thus a collection of schools of thought.

	Jacket 15 - Drew Milne - "Adorno's Hut" - Ian Hamilton Finlay's neoclassical rearmament programme
		IN DISCUSSIONS leading up to the fiasco of the 1989 bicentennial celebrations of the French Revolution, Ian Hamilton Finlay is reported to have suggested to the French Socialist Government that the best way to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the French Revolution would be to have a revolution.
		The most dramatic historical emergence of neoclassicism is in the French Revolution, the event which is often taken to mark the birth of modernity, [9] and an event which is thematic in much of Finlay’s recent work.
		The purpose of Marx’s account of the costumes of the French Revolution in The Eighteenth Brumaire is to set the scene for his satirical account of how the revolutions of 1848 to 1851 provided a grotesque parody of the French Revolution of 1793 to 1795.

	Epitaph and Anthem
		Some ungenerous commentators have since argued that it was a deviation, or an aberrant turn, on what has proved to be a Neoclassical thoroughfare from 1871 until today.
		There were plenty of Neoclassical viruses introduced at the outset into the Neo-Keynesian system, thus it was no surprise that these would slowly grow to dominate the system, render it incapable of operation and, in the end, bring it crashing down.
		Of course, all this is quite a reversal of affairs from the 1930s, when Neoclassical macroeconomics was at a loss to explain the economic situation in the Western world, where the central problems were involuntary unemployment and deflation and where the conventional wisdom was precisely that markets did not work.

	RePEc
		Abstract: The intellectual breakthroughs that mark the neoclassical revolution in economic analysis occurred in Europe around 1870.
		The next two decades witnessed lively debates in which the new theory more or less absorbed or was absorbed in the classical tradition that preceded and provoked it.
		They and others brought neoclassical theory into American journals, classrooms, and textbooks, and its analytical tools into the kits of researchers and practitioners.
