A Set of Axioms for Neoclassical Economics and the Methodological Status of the Equilibrium Concept

Author

Listed:
  • Vilks, Arnis

Abstract

It is widely agreed that the concept of general equilibrium and, in particular, general equilibrium existence proofs play a central role within the neoclassical approach to economic theory. There is much less agreement, however, on the concepts of general equilibrium and of neoclassical economic theory themselves.
