Abstract: This paper critically evaluates the theoretical basis of a variety of welfare change measures. It does this in a unified fashion by examining the basic mathematical framework underlying the consumer's surplus analysis. In particular, the place of Harberger's welfare measure within this basic framework is discussed.
