Abstract: Abstract Comparisons between Walras and Marshall are quite frequent in the literature. Starting from the two economists’ analytical contributions, some authors highlight their similarities despite the apparent diversity of their approaches (general equilibrium vs partial equilibrium). Accordingly, notwithstanding the differences between the two economists as regards methodology and purpose of analysis, both Walras and Marshall are considered representatives of the neoclassical tradition.
