2010 marks the hundredth anniversary of the death of L on Walras,
the brilliant originator and first formaliser of general
equilibrium theory -- one of the pillars of modern economic theory.
In advancing much derided practical solutions Walras also displayed
more concern for the problems of living in a second best world than
is common in modern pure theories of the invisible hand, efficient
market hypothesis, DSGE macroeconomics or the thinking of some
contemporary free market admirers all based on general equilibrium
theory. This book brings contributions from the likes of Kenneth
Arrow, Alan Kirman, Richard Posner, Amartya Sen and Robert Solow to
share their thoughts and reflections on the theoretical heritage of
L on Walras. Some authors reminisce on the part they played in the
development of modern general economics theory; others reflect on
the crucial part played by general equilibrium in the development
of macroeconomics, microeconomics, growth theory, welfare economics
and the theory of justice; others still complain about the wrong
path economic theory took under the influence of post 1945
developments in general equilibrium theory.
