Rent control and misallocation [PDF]
The paper considers welfare effects of rent control when it is applied only in a sector of a rental housing market. In rent controlled sectors of the Danish rental housing market, we find welfare reducing overallocation of square meters between 9 and 17 ...

Is the Platform Economy the New Rentier Capitalism? Capitalising Achille Loria’s Analysis of Rent and its Elision [PDF]
Journal of Interdisciplinary Sciences, 2023 The economy’s platformization has enacted new ways of creating value. This has happened in an unregulated context that has facilitated the spread of such tools. Nowadays, platforms mediate many services we enjoy, paying a hidden price: data.

Concept of economical‐mathematical model of land market
Technological and Economic Development of Economy, 2007 Input parameters, ie factors defining the market price of agricultural‐purpose land, are interrelated very often by means of non‐linear ties. Strength of these ties is rather different and this limits usefulness of information in the research process of ...

RENT: Notes on Efficiency Pricing, Rent Control and Monopolistic Landlords [PDF]
We consider a model of 'tenancy rent control' where landlords are not allowed to raise the rent on sitting tenants nor to evict them, though they are free to set the nominal rent when taking on a new tenant.
