Abstract

This note demonstrates that PIERO SRAFFA'S wage‐profit frontier can be generalized to take into account the real costs of protecting the environment from waste residuals. As such, it is an exercise in theoretical synthesis which draws upon elements of neo‐Ricardian theory and environmental economics. Dieser Aufsatz zeigt, dass PIERO SRAFFA'S Lohn‐Gewinngrenze verallgemeinert werden kann, um die realen Kosten des Umweltschutzes vor Rohstoffverschwendung zu berücksichtigen. Der verwendete theoretische Syntheseansatz enthält Elemente der neo‐Ricardianischen Theorie und der Umweltökonomik. Cette note démontre que la frontiére des salaires‐bénéfices développée par PIERO SRAFFA peut ȩtre généralisée afin de tenir compte des cou̧ts réels associés avec la protection de l'environnement des déchets réidus. En temps que tel, c'est un exercice de synthése théorique qui est basé d'une part suc la théorie néo‐ricardienne et de l'autre part sur l'économie politique de l'environnement.
