The Economics of Increasing Returns presents an authoritative
collection of the most significant papers by leading scholars in
this key area of economics. Increasing returns can change quite
radically our view of how the economy operates. They make the
economy seem more complicated and pose a challenge to the
established wisdom. The papers in this volume cover the main areas
in which the recognition of increasing returns makes a significant
difference. They are arranged in six main sections: resource
allocation and welfare economics, microfoundations of
macroeconomics, product variety and imperfect competition,
information and information technology, economic growth and
international trade. Our understanding of economies with increasing
returns is far from complete. This thought-provoking collection
gives an insight into existing work on the subject and indicates
those areas where further research would bear fruit.
