Hardcover. Condizione: Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fine. 1st Edition. ix, 238 pp. Original cloth. Some neat ink underlining on pp. 2-7, 9, else Near Fine, in near fine dust jacket. Out of print in cloth; in print in paperback at US$43.00. Edmund S. Phelps: Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, 2006, 'for his analysis of intertemporal tradeoffs in macroeconomic policy.' 'Last but not least, positing rational expectations equilibrium is not just inaccurate as a way to close the model in the same sense as postulating rational choice is taken to be inaccurate: It is inappropriate to impose on the model. In a highly innovative economy and thus one subject to change, firms even firms in the same industry and location are all thinking differently. So a firm would have no grounds to reason, as it implicitly does in rational-expectations theory, that 'since I have calculated I must raise my wages by x percent, I should now take into account that my competitors are planning to do the same; so I must now adjust my wage increase even more .' This kind of inductive reasoning to arrive at the right expectations is inapplicable. That is the thesis of my piece (Phelps, 1983) in the Frydman-Phelps volume [offered here]' (Phelps, 'Macroeconomics for a Modern Economy', Nobel Lecture, Dec. 8, 2006). Contents: Preface; 1.

The stability of rational expectations in macroeconomic models George Evans; Comment Guillermo A. Calvo; 5. Individual rationality, decentralization, and the rational expectations hypothesis Roman Frydman; 6. Convergence to rational expectations equilibrium Margaret Bray; Comment Roy Radner; 7.
