INTERTEMPORAL COMPETITIVE EQUILIBRIUM, CAPITAL AND THE STABILITY OF TÂTONNEMENT PRICING REVISITED

Sergio Parrinello

Metroeconomica, 2005, vol. 56, issue 4, 514-531

Abstract: This paper reconsiders a recent criticism which contends that the theory of general intertemporal equilibrium, formulated by taking the physical endowments of capital goods as given, is not protected from the problem of capital at the centre of the two Cambridges debate of the 1960s. The author confirms such a criticism following a different approach. He argues that the stability analysis of an intertemporal equilibrium via tâtonnement must be consistent with a uniform rate of return on capital. He shows that the resulting non‐orthodox tâtonnement subverts the traditional analysis of equilibrium stability.
