Rent, as Share of Produce, Not Governed by Proportions

Christian Gehrke

Chapter 12 in Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory: Volume Three, 2013, pp 261-280 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The ‘General Index’ of the Works and Correspondence of David Ricardo contains a sub-entry on ‘Rent, as share of produce, not governed by proportions’,1 with a page reference to a deleted passage in note 115 of Ricardo’s Notes on Malthus, which reads: Rent is not a proportion of the produce obtained — it is not governed like wages or profits by proportions — depending as it does on the difference between the quantity of produce obtained by two equal capitals. (Works II, pp. 196–7, note 1)
