This second volume of the book Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory focuses on the theory of output and growth as developed in the modern revival of classical approach. Written on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the publication of Piero Sraffa's Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities, the papers selected and contained in this book accounts for the work completed around the two central aspects of his contribution to economic analysis, namely the criticism of the neoclassical (or 'marginalist') theory of value and distribution, and the reconstruction of economic theory along the lines of the Classical approach. Divided into three volumes, the book debates the most fruitful routes for advancements in this field and their implications for applied and policy analysis. This second volume focuses on the theory of output and growth as developed in the modern Classical approach on the basis of the extension to the long run of the Keynesian principle of effective demand, and on the implications of the revival of the Classical approach for policy analysis and for understanding the evolution of the international economic order in the last few decades

Divided into three volumes, the book debates the most fruitful routes for advancements in this field and their implications for applied and policy analysis. This first volumes focuses on the critique of general equilibrium theory and the determinants of income distribution, together with the related issue of the method of analysis which characterises the Classical theory and the marginalist approach.

Divided into three volumes, Sraffa and the Reconstruction of Economic Theory debates the most fruitful routes for advancements in this field and their implications for applied and policy analysis. This third volume collects papers concerning the evolution of Sraffa's ideas and the interpretation of his contribution in relation to other streams in economics, methodology and the history of economic thought.

Depuis la fin des années soixante, la recherche en théorie de l'équilibre général est centrée sur les économies où les marchés au comptant de marchandises coexistent avec des marchés d'actifs et où les échanges suivent une logique séquentielle. L'étude des « économies séquentielles » s'est développée en suivant deux voies inspirées de Value and Capital de Hicks, mettant en évidence la dépendance des choix des agents à leurs anticipations de prix futurs. La première est la théorie de l'équilibre temporaire, dans laquelle les anticipations sont subjectives. La seconde suppose que tous les agents anticipent parfaitement les prix futurs (économies séquentielles avec anticipation parfaite). Cet article souligne que l'inclusion des anticipations parmi les déterminants de l'équilibre pose des problèmes analytiques importants dans les deux approches mentionnées. D'abord, sur la base des études des années 1970 et 1980, nous discuterons les difficultés de la théorie de l'équilibre temporaire dues à la nature subjective des anticipations individuelles. Nous examinerons ensuite les économies séquentielles avec anticipation parfaite. Après avoir illustré la notion d'équilibre sur laquelle repose l'analyse de ces économies, à savoir « l'équilibre des plans, des prix et des anticipations de prix » introduit par Radner [1972], nous démontrons, à la lumière des contributions ultérieures dans ce domaine, que, pour des configurations plausibles de l'économie, la prévision parfaite associée aux équilibres de Radner est théoriquement contestable.
