Overview

This volume contains papers on economic theory and international trade. The papers on economic theory cover the existence and structure of competitive equilibrium in various settings: non-convexities, non-transitivity of preferences, and absence of differentiability or free-disposal assumptions, the role of compensating variation as a welfare measure, oligopoly under bounded rationality, and regulation of a public utility. The papers in international trade offer analyses of the ""Dutch disease"" and the Atlantic Slave trade, treat the influence of economic growth on import demand, the terms of trade, and other economic variables, and present theoretical and empirical evidence for the validity of the Heckscher-Ohlin model. The papers are rigorous and often require mathematical sophistication, reflecting various aspects of Trout Rader's work.
