Such analysis disregards the implications of capital flows on their domestic economies, especially in terms of the “impossibility” of following a monetary policy that benefits domestic...

Weiss (1981) established core equivalence and the existence of competitive equilibria in finitely additive exchange economies. To underline the relevance of finitely additive economies we present in this note an example with a close connection to finite exchange economies. JEL Classification Number: D51.

We show that for a specific class of random matching Edgeworthian economies, the expectation of the limiting equilibrium price coincides with the equilibrium price of the related Walrasian economies. This result extends to the study of economies in the presence of uncertainty within the multi-period Arrow-Debreu model, allowing to understand the dynamics of how beliefs survive and propagate thr...

This introduction proposes an anthropology of global cargo circulation by placing the maritime shipping industry at center capitalism. With “container economies” we refer to that is sustained undervalued labor force, dependent upon unstable logistics infrastructures and driven speculative capital. Container economies, argue, are produced adding, moving, destroying value through supply chain. In...
