The microeconomic foundation of the theory of money has long represented a puzzle to economic theory. Why is there Money? derives the foundations of monetary theory from advanced price theory in a mathematically precise family of trading post models. It has long been recognized that the fundamental theoretical analysis of a market economy is embodied in the Arrow-Debreu-Walras mathematical general equilibrium model, with one great deficiency: the analysis cannot accommodate money and financial institutions. In this groundbreaking book, Ross M. Starr addresses this problem directly, by expandin

"This book sheds new light on the general equilibrium theory of Le´on Walras (1834-1910) from a historical perspective. Walras's construction of general equilibrium theory marked the dawn of modern economics, and the theory was greatly developed in the 20th century. However, Walras's own intentions and ideas behind the theory are still not fully understood. This book aims to clarify the intellectual background of Walras's economics by delving into his original writings, which have not received much attention until now. Part 1 of the book reconsiders the relationship between Walras and his predecessors, Adam Smith (1723-1790), Jean-Baptiste Say (1767-1832), and Achylle Nicolas Isnard (1749-1803), who are believed to have had a decisive influence on Walras's general equilibrium theory. In Part 2, the book explores Walras's views on the labor market, entrepreneurship, and non-selfish human nature, including concepts like sympathy, which have been overlooked in his general equilibrium theory and subsequently misunderstood to this day. Walras's economic thought is one of the foundational sources of modern economics. An accurate and in-depth understanding of it will provide a new perspective on the problems faced by modern economics and open future possibilities for economics as a social science. This book offers new insights not only to researchers and students of the history of economics but also to all those interested in the origins of modern economics"-- Provided by publisher.

"Quels rapports ont entretenu l'idéal républicain et la science économique tout au long du XIXe siècle, sur fond de révolution industrielle ? Cet idéal est-il uniquement politique ou implique-t-il de donner aux rapports économiques et sociaux une forme spécifiquement républicaine ? Doit-il nécessairement se soumettre au fonctionnement autonome de l'économie, marque des sociétés modernes ? N'est-il pas porteur d'exigences propres, de principes et de valeurs ? Ces derniers n'invitent-ils pas au contraire à façonner les rapports économiques autrement qu'ils ne l'ont été dans l'histoire récente du capitalisme ? Retracer la trajectoire intellectuelle de l'économiste Léon Walras - ardent républicain et démocrate, considéré aujourd'hui comme le père fondateur de l'économie scientifique, théoricien de la concurrence pure et parfaite et de l'équilibre général des marchés - permet de répondre à ces questions. Ce livre cherche à comprendre la pensée économique de Léon Walras à l'aune, non plus de l'histoire de l'analyse économique, mais de celle du républicanisme. L'idée d'un marché juste parce que méritocratique est la principale contribution de Walras au républicanisme français après l'échec de la Révolution de 1848. Égalité des conditions, inégalités des positions, telle est la formule qu'il a défendue et dans laquelle est encore enfermé notre imaginaire social républicain. Encore faut-il en éclairer la genèse afin d'en comprendre les limites."--Page 4 of cover.

This study offers a new perspective of Walras' pure, applied and social economics. Through archival research at the University of Lausanne, Jolink considers Walras' ideas on philosophy and philosophy of science based on a newly constructed taxonomy. Walras' work is placed in a broader context by stressing the nineteenth century cultural and historical background in which he lived. This further gives an insight into the relationship between the romanticism of the early nineteenth century and logical positivism of the twentieth century.
