Rent, resources, and technologies are three crucial issues to the
understanding of history and economics. The scarcity of resources,
its interplay with technology, and the role of rent in explaining
both economic growth and income distribution are investigated by
adopting a multi-sectoral and non-proportional model, where scarce
resources impose several scale constraints that may slow growth,
but may contribute to further development of new technologies. In
this dynamic framework the category of rent acquires new dimensions
with far-reaching implications for both the system of prices and
the distribution of income. The analytical and formal-theoretical
perspective of this book could be used as a basis for future
historical and quantitative studies.
