Von Neumann and Sraffa: Mathematical Equivalence and Conceptual Difference

Abstract

In this chapter I compare Sraffa’s and von Neumann’s methods for the analysis of joint production systems from the point of view of economic methodology; a parallel article gives the mathematical background with complete proofs but without the interpretation proposed here (see Chapter 5 in this volume and the summary of mathematical definitions and results in the Appendix). These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
