It set off a debate which has still not been settled. In the meantime, the global economy has been through the crises of stagfation, globalisation, the Great Recession and lately Covid-19. Nostrums and solutions have come—Keynesianism, Monetarism, New Classical Economics—and gone. The Soviet system of economic planning collapsed and has been forgotten. Practical remedies to real life problems having failed, it may be the time for going back to fundamentals. Here is a splendidly rich collection of contributions, with criticisms and replies that Ajit Sinha has brought together which will merit serious study by senior economists as much as the next generation of young stu- dents. Here the Sraffa system is analysed in its full complexity and dissected by scholars who were there when Sraffa published the book as well as subsequent three generations of students. Here are Geoffrey Harcourt, Bertram Schefold, Roberto Scazzieri, Christina Marcuzzo, Anna Carabelli, Annalisa Rosselli, John King, Guglielmo Chiodi, names which have been known to us as experts in theory, methodology and philosophy of economics. Sraffa was not just an economic theorist. The book casts light on his infuence on Wittgenstein (Sinha), his discussions with Keynes (Carabelli) and his friendship with Gramsci (Naldi) and Kalecki (King). The availability of the Sraffa archives has enriched our understanding of his thinking and the debates he carried on with himself and his correspondents. This book captures the spirit of these archives which previous work on Sraffa has missed out on. The debate here is creative as there is also a contribution relating Sraffa’s theory to the problem of non-­renewable natural capital (Verger). Ajit Sinha has prepared a feast for students and scholars of economics, philoso- phy and politics to enjoy.” —Lord Meghnad Desai, Professor Emeritus, London School of Economics PREFACE Sraffa’s contribution to economics is mainly thought of in terms of his specifc contributions to particular theoretical issues in Economics—his early contributions (1925, 26)1 were acknowledged as a devastating cri- tique of Marshall’s theoretical framework of partial equilibrium in a per- fectly competitive market under the condition of ceteris paribus; the latter paper also proved to be seminal in the development of the theories of ‘imperfectly competitive’ markets; he is also noted for his polemic with Hayek on Hayek’s Production and Prices (1931)2 in which he developed an ingenious idea of ‘a commodity’s own rate of interest’ (Sraffa 1932),3 which Keynes utilised in his General Theory (1936)4 and is also used in the inter-temporal general equilibrium analysis; and most importantly, he is credited to have presented a defnitive critique of the orthodox marginal productivity theory of distribution of income in his magnum opus, Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities (1960).5 Along with 1 ‘Sulle relazioni tra costo e quantita prodotta. Annali di Economia, Vol. 2: pp. 277–328, 1925 and ‘The laws of returns under competitive conditions’, The Economic Journal, vol. 36: pp. 535–50, 1926. 2 Prices and Production, London: George Routledge & Sons ltd., 1931. 3 ‘Dr. Hayek on Money and Capital’, Economic Journal, vol. 42 (165), pp. 42–53. 4 The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, London: A Harvest/ HBJ Books. In a footnote to Chapter 17 of the General Theory, Keynes wrote, ‘This relationship was frst pointed out by Mr. Sraffa, Economic Journal, March 1932, p.50’. Sraffa, however, found Keynes’s use of this concept contradictory and inconsistent as is evident from the marginal comments in his personal copy of the General Theory. 5 Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities: Prelude to a Critique of Economic Theory, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. vii viii PREFACE these important specifc contributions to economic theory, he is also cred- ited to have given a new interpretation of ‘Classical Economics’ by provid- ing a highly original interpretation of Ricardo’s ‘labour theory of value’ in his universally acknowledged magisterial editing of Works and Correspondence of David Ricardo6 and, in some sense, connecting it to the theory developed in his Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities. Even though the list is highly impressive and would be good enough to qualify Sraffa to be inducted in the ‘Economics Hall of Fame’, this sort of listing of specifc contributions does not do justice to the overall nature and signifcance of his contribution to Economics. My own study of Sraffa’s archives convinced me of this conclusion, which I tried to com- municate to the larger intellectual audience in my book, A Revolution in Economic Theory: The Economics of Piero Sraffa (Sinha 2016).7 It seems to me that Sraffa wanted to cut the foundation of Economics from its old moorings either in an essentialist problematic in which the theory searches for the ultimate cause of a phenomenon or the mechanical causation in which the theory searches for an equilibrium of forces as the solution of the problem. Sraffa seems to want to bring economic theory to the mod- ern era of the twentieth century quantum mechanics, which eschews determinacy and classical causation in favour of indeterminacy and struc- tural relations. Moreover, he wants to build economics as a science based on observable data and therefore does not want to allow human psychol- ogy any role in economic theory as human psychology is unobservable. This is a manifesto for a revolution in economic theory. While Sraffa’s archive at the Wren Library, Trinity College, University of Cambridge, was offcially opened up to public in the early 1990s, it was not available in print or electronic format and the use of its contents was kept on a tight leash for more than a decade by the literary executor of the time. For many years there were only a handful of Sraffa-scholars who had an opportunity to study it partially or completely and were allowed to quote from it. Lately, however, the situation has eased and increasingly more and more scholars interested in Sraffa’s work are coming up with their interesting fndings and alternative interpretations of the method- ological and philosophical underpinnings of Sraffa’s economics. In a way, 6 ‘Introduction’, in Works and Correspondence of David Ricardo, vol. I, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1951. 7 A Revolution in Economic Theory: The Economics of Piero Sraffa, Cham: Palgrave Macmillan. PREFACE ix Sraffa’s economics is currently going through a churning. In this milieu, Rachel Sangster of Palgrave Macmillan approached me in early 2019 to consider editing a volume that would refect on Sraffa’s economics in a fresh way by taking account of the insights from his archives—the present volume is the outcome of that—it, indeed, stands as an example of the current renaissance of Sraffa’s economics that is well underway.

    What Remains of the Cambridge Critique? On Professor Schefold’s Theses Fabio Petri Centro Sraffa Working Papers n. 50 July 2021 ISSN: 2284-2845 Centro Sraffa Working Papers [online] What Remains of the Cambridge Critique? On Professor Schefold’s Theses Fabio Petri DEPS, University of Siena Abstract Professor Bertram Schefold’s recent papers on capital theory and the Cambridge cri- tique argue that the very low likelihood of reswitching and reverse capital deepening that appears to emerge from empirical input-output tables is confirmed by theoretical results; these results, he concludes, largely rehabilitate traditional neoclassical views on capital and show that the Sraffian critics’ insistence on reverse capital deepening as a fundamental criticism of neoclassical theory is misplaced. The present paper raises doubts about these arguments. In particular Professor Schefold does not give adequate consideration to the ‘supply-side’ problems with the measurability and the given en- dowment of the traditional notion of capital as a single factor. On the empirical evi- dence based on input-output tables, I agree with Professor Kurz that it suffers from very serious weaknesses. The more recent argument for an extremely low likelihood of dou- ble switching, advanced in Schefold (2016) and (2017), appears criticisable too. Keywords: capital theory; Cambridge critique; random matrices; aggregate production function JEL codes: B13; B51; E25 1. Professor Schefold’s main theses 1.1. Professor Schefold’s papers on capital theory subsequent to Han and Schefold (2006) have argued that the extremely low likelihood of reswitching and reverse capital deepening that emerges (according to him) from the study of empirical input-output ta- bles is confirmed by theoretical results; these results, he concludes, rehabilitate to a con- siderable extent traditional neoclassical views on capital, and show that the insistence of the ‘Sraffian’ critics on reverse capital deepening as a fundamental criticism of neoclas- sical theory is misplaced.

  • MIT and the Other Cambridge Roger E
    History of Political Economy MIT and the Other Cambridge Roger E. Backhouse 1. Preliminaries In 1953 Joan Robinson, at the University of Cambridge, in England, pub- lished a challenge to what she chose to call the neoclassical theory of production. She claimed that it did not make sense to use a production function of the form Q = f(L, K),1 in which the rate of interest or profit (the two terms are used interchangeably) was assumed to equal the marginal product of capital, ∂Q/∂K, for it confused two distinct concepts of capital. The variable K could not represent simultaneously the physical stock of capital goods and the value of capital from which the rate of profit was calculated. A related critique was then offered by Piero Sraffa (1960). In place of the marginal productivity theory of income distribution, Robin- son and her Cambridge colleagues, Nicholas Kaldor and Luigi Pasinetti, argued for what they called a “Keynesian” theory of distribution in which Correspondence may be addressed to Roger E.

  • Bertram Schefold “What's Wrong with Economics? a Primer for the Perplexed” by Robert Skidelsky New Haven and London: Yale
    Bertram Schefold “What’s wrong with economics? A primer for the perplexed” by Robert Skidelsky New Haven and London: Yale University Press ISBN 978-0-300-24987-3 Review for Journal of Economics 15 April 2021 Prof. Dr. Dres. h.c. Bertram Schefold Faculty of Economics Goethe University Theodor-W.-Adorno Platz 4 60323 Frankfurt am Main Germany [email protected] Among the many books that advocate pluralism in economics, this one stands out because of its author. Robert Skidelsky has written a prize-winning biography of John Maynard Keynes in three volumes (Skidelsky 1983, 1992, 2000). What conclusions for economics as a discipline is the man going to draw who has identified with the main reformer of economics in the 20th century? The answer is: he does not advocate, nor even strive for an alternative theory to mainstream economics, but he advocates a pluralism, of which he admits that it is by no means new. For historicist and interdisciplinary approaches have been advocated by many ever since economics emerged as an autonomous discipline; one can mention the historical school, socio- economics, Marx, and current authors. Skidelsky informs the reader about his own background in history. He does not believe much in cumulative progress in economics, but he does not write many pages on forgotten authors that might deserve to be resuscitated either. Instead, he mostly quotes contemporaries, never forgetting to mention the Nobel Prize if the author under investigation had got it. He wishes to present what is important through the mutual profession and criticism primarily of the modern authorities in a process of deconstruction and reconstruction.

The context This collection of essays is a tribute to the academic career of Sergio Parrinello1, a scholar whose research has focused in particular on the strand of Neo-Ricardian and Post-Keynesian studies as developed in Italy in the 1960s, influenced by the post-war debate between the two Cambridge schools on the theory of capital and distribution.2 Unlike other young scholars of the time, as a graduate from a peripheral university no opportunity came his way for a scholarship for specialisation in a university abroad, such as the University of Cambridge, accorded the greatest favour at the time.3 Thus the early years of his postgraduate education continued in the same university where he had taken his degree. The 1960s saw great ferment in theoretical research.

  • Profits Equal Surplus Value on Average 1 and the Significance of This Result for the Marxian Theory of Accumulation Centro Di Ri
    Profits Equal Surplus Value on Average 1 and the significance of this result for the Marxian theory of accumulation A New Contribution to Engels' Prize Essay Competition, based on random matrices and on manuscripts recently published in the MEGA for the first time Centro di Ricerche e Documentazione „Piero Sraffa“ In collaboration with Dipartimento di Economia, Roma Tre Thursday 28 November 2013, 14:30, Room 11 Summary: Marx' justification of his theory of surplus value in the face of unequal compositions of capital, by interpreting total profits as a redistribution of surplus value, is not correct in general, but it is shown here that the equality holds, if the input matrices are random and if the labour theory of value holds, in a sense to be specified, on average. Manuscripts recently published for the first time confirm that Marx to the end trusted his approach to the theory of value in that he continued to use the identity of the aggregates of capital and surplus in value and in price terms. His insistence was rooted in his philosophy. An attempt is made to clarify his use of a Hegelian methodology by comparing Hegel's and Marx' approaches to the foundation of the infinitesimal calculus. The paper concludes with Marx' late reconsiderations of this theory of the falling rate of profit, which also continue to be based on the equality of profit and surplus value.

  • DRAFT on the Cambridge, England, Critique of the Marginal Productivity Theory of Distribution
    DRAFT On the Cambridge, England, critique of the marginal productivity theory of * distribution “… the marginal productivity theory of distribution is all bosh.” (Joan Robinson ([1961]; 1965, 13.)) INTRODUCTION The Cambridge, England, critique of the marginal productivity theory of distribution is hard to disentangle from (indeed, in the event, I found it impossible to do so) the related theories and developments that occurred alongside it. These include value theory, capital theory, growth theory and methodology. The economists associated with the critique – Krishna Bharadwaj, Pierangelo Garegnani, Richard Kahn, Nicholas Kaldor, Luigi Pasinetti, Joan Robinson, Piero Sraffa – were simultaneously developing their own macroeconomic theories of distribution to replace marginal productivity. Their theories were embodied in theories of growth and reflected the methodology associated with the critique and their own developments. The aspect of the critique that was most emphasised was set within the context of capital theory. Initially, it concerned the meaning and its corollary, the measurement of capital and its marginal product in an explanation of the distribution of the national product between wages and profits. In Joan Robinson’s 1953-54 article, “The production function and the theory of capital”, which started the exchanges in the public domain, i.e., outside Cambridge, England, she complained that “The dominance in neoclassical economic teaching of the concept of a * I thank but in no way implicate Prue Kerr, Peter Kriesler and especially Fred Moseley for their comments on a draft of this paper.
