Entropy and Economic Modelling

Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1982
Entropy-maximizing models have been focused predominantly at the microscopic level of social and economic activities, their use being advocated by urban geographers, mathematicians, and microeconomists. By maintaining a sharp distinction between the behavioural and statistical aspects of entropy, various submodels may be formulated to generate the ...

Modelling Nonlinear Economic Relationships

1993
Abstract This volume explains recent theoretical developments in the econometric modelling of relationships between different statistical series. The statistical techniques explored analyse relationships between different variables, over time, such as the relationship between variables in a macroeconomy.

Measurement for Economic Models*

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1954
Abstract Three chief subjects are considered. (1) How accurate should data be for economic analysis via economic models, particularly input-output models? Preference is expressed for measurement of additional aspects of economic phenomena rather than broadside improvements in generally sound series.

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1955
STATISTICS as a scientific method goes back to the seventeenth century when William Petty and others computed mortality ratios on the basis of church records of births and deaths.

Pierre Bourdieu: Economic models against economism

Theory and Society, 2003
The use of economic analogies by Bourdieu has often been the object of much criticism. For some scholars, it reveals an “economistic” vision of the social world too much inspired by neoclassical economics. For others, it is a kind of mechanical metaphor transposed to cultural phenomena in a determinist way, as in the holistic (Marxist) tradition.

Economic Models in Development Economics

1995
This chapter explores and evaluates the use of mathematical models in development economics, particularly computable general equilibrium (CGE) models. Such models have become an increasingly important tool of analysis in development economics. They represent an intriguing and powerful device for making predictions about the behavior of complex national
