On Increasing Returns To Scale. A Reply To Professor Ryzhenkov

Author

  • Luciano Boggio

Abstract

A recent paper by Ryzhenkov considers also a paper of mine, where increasing returns to scale are a crucial ingredient. According to Ryzhenkov, my specification of increasing returns is not correct. In this paper I shall show that on the contrary, it is his specification that is not correct while mine is well grounded in the main contributions to this field of literature. Further criticisms addressed to my paper will also receive a reply.
