A Dynamic Approach to Economic Theory - The Yale Lectures of Ragnar Frisch (Paperback): Ragnar Frisch A Dynamic Approach to Economic Theory - The Yale Lectures of Ragnar Frisch (Paperback)
Ragnar Frisch; Edited by Olav Bjerkholt, Duo Qin
R1,526 Discovery Miles 15 260 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

This book contains a set of notes prepared by Ragnar Frisch for a lecture series that he delivered at Yale University in 1930. The lecture notes provide not only a valuable source document for the history of econometrics, but also a more systematic introduction to some of Frisch's key methodological ideas than his other works so far published in various media for the econometrics community. In particular, these notes contain a number of prescient ideas precursory to some of the most important notions developed in econometrics during the 1970s and 1980s More remarkably, Frisch demonstrated a deep understanding of what econometric or statistical analysis could achieve under the situation where there lacked known correct theoretical models. This volume has been rigorously edited and comes with an introductory essay from Olav Bjerkholt and Duo Qin placing the notes in their historical context.

Problems and Methods of Econometrics - The Poincare Lectures of Ragnar Frisch 1933 (Hardcover): Ragnar Frisch Problems and Methods of Econometrics - The Poincare Lectures of Ragnar Frisch 1933 (Hardcover)
Ragnar Frisch; Edited by Olav Bjerkholt, Ariane Dupont-Kieffer
R4,268 Discovery Miles 42 680 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The development of economics changed dramatically during the twentieth century with the emergence of econometrics, macroeconomics and a more scientific approach in general. One of the key individuals in the transformation of economics was Ragnar Frisch, professor at the University of Oslo and the first Nobel Laureate in economics in 1969. He was a co-founder of the Econometric Society in 1930 (after having coined the word econometrics in 1926) and edited the journal Econometrics for twenty-two years. The discovery of the manuscripts of a series of eight lectures given by Frisch at the Henri Poincar Institute in March April 1933 on The Problems and Methods of Econometrics will enable economists to more fully understand his overall vision of econometrics.

This book is a rare exhibition of Frisch 's overview on econometrics and is published here in English for the first time. Edited and with an introduction by Olav Bjerkholt and Ariane Dupont-Kieffer, Frisch 's eight lectures provide an accessible and astute discussion of econometric issues from philosophical foundations to practical procedures.

Concerning the development of economics in the twentieth century and the broader visions about economic science in general and econometrics in particular held by Ragnar Frisch, this book will appeal to anyone with an interest in the history of economics and econometrics.

The Wages of Peace - Disarmament in a Small Industrialized Economy (Hardcover): Nils Petter Gleditsch, Adne Cappelen, Olav... The Wages of Peace - Disarmament in a Small Industrialized Economy (Hardcover)

R4,839 Discovery Miles 48 390 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

With the end of the Cold War, many nations have set about cutting their military spending, and visions of a large `peace dividend' have emerged. Yet, even today, the arms race remains one of the major projects of humankind, and one of the most unproductive. The Wages of Peace explores some of the consequences and opportunities stemming from the resulting peace dividend. This book charts a middle course between extravagant claims about the improvements in welfare, development or the environment which may be funded by the peace divided, and dire assessments of how militarized economies will collapse as a result of disarmament spiced with warnings that the savings have already been squandered. This book represents the most detailed study of the economic effects of conversion for any country. It breaks new ground in using planning models to examine the environmental effects of disarmament. Based on a decade of studies, this book examines the global, national and local effects of disarmament, focusing on Norway. The findings are cautiously optimistic. The most important peace dividend is peace itself, but economic gains may be expected.

Foundations of Modern Econometrics - The Selected Essays of Ragnar Frisch (Hardcover): Olav Bjerkholt Foundations of Modern Econometrics - The Selected Essays of Ragnar Frisch (Hardcover)
Olav Bjerkholt
R7,355 Discovery Miles 73 550 Out of stock

Ragnar Frisch (1895-1973) played a major role in the foundation of econometrics as a discipline. Joint winner with Jan Tinbergen of the first Nobel prize in economics, he exerted a strong influence both on its development in the 1930s and, as editor of Econometrica for more than twenty years, its subsequent growth following the Second World War. Beginning with his early contributions to utility measurement and index problems, macrodynamics and econometric methods, this outstanding collection of his essays also features his later work on macroeconomic models and planning methods, including programming techniques and preference functions. Edited with a biographical introduction by Olav Bjerkholt, this two volume set makes many important papers readily accessible and provides a broad assessment of the work of a great econometrician.
