Anti-tobacco movement in Nazi Germany

Hi, a discussion is going on regarding a German to English translation in Talk:Anti-tobacco_movement_in_Nazi_Germany#Consensus_for_translation_of_the_word_.22Genussgifte.22. Since you are involved in the article, I am notifying you. Please join the discussion. Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 14:47, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Graphs in PIIGS article

Thanks for adding the graphs, but they need some explanation before they can be useful. Could you please explain what they are supposed to be illustrating? One of the graphs isn't even in English. Wjousts (talk) 12:49, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I thought below the graphs is the explanation ("fiscal balance", "employment"). In addition the graphs themselves show titles which explain things. --Alex1011 (talk) 18:38, 2 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Additions to List of Gestures

Hello Alex1011. Thank you for your contributions, including recent additions to List of gestures. I was concerned, though, that your edits made it appear that the information you added was supported by the existing sources. Can you please cite a reliable source for any new information? Thanks, Cnilep (talk) 12:10, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Von Neumann and economics

Alex, do you agree that convex sets, separating hyperplanes, duality, and fixed-point theorems are the main tools of economics (of course differential calculus remains important, but it too has evolved ...)? (It's clear that von Neumann pushed those ideas earlier and with greater effect than others, except perhaps Kantorovich, whose influence was limited by the cold war.) The New Palgrave's articles on convexity (past and current volume) probably have such a statement. I would look at the New Palgrave's entry on von Neumann or the Dore volume on John von Neumann and economics for a statement of synthesis.

It may be useful to tone down the language, of course, even if similar statements be made by Samuelson or Arrow (writing in Dore, ed.). Kiefer.Wolfowitz 19:36, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Best regards, Kiefer.Wolfowitz 19:36, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You say that your are an economist, and you seem most interested in Marxist economics. You might like to look at books by Ian Steedman (Marx after Sraffa), Ulrich Krause, and Richard Murphy Goodwin as well as some by Japanese economist(lecture notes in mathematical economics and operations research, springer verlag, on value theory)

Fujimori, Y. (1982). "Modern Analysis of Value Theory". Lecture Notes in Economics and Mathematical Systems. Springer. {{cite conference}}: Unknown parameter |booktitle= ignored (|book-title= suggested) (help) (19:56, 14 May 2011 (UTC))

and Italian economists (Punzo? or Passinetti?), whose names escape me. You should find a lot of discussion of von Neumann's model, more to your interests. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 22:31, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for this information. I am indeed at the moment looking in this direction. I could also mention Peter Flaschel, who has also published in this direction with Springer Verlag in English. --Alex1011 (talk) 07:56, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

However, this literature has trouble with any consumer choice, and so its descriptive adequacy is limited, imho.

On the production side, it's hard to understand Leontiev models as descriptive of a modern or even industrial economy, altough it was good for the Fysiocrats! ;) At least von Neumann (with activity analysis/convex polyhedra) and Roemer's dissertation (convex sets) allow choice of techniques.

I looked at this literature more because UAW economists liked Leontiev and others claimed that the labor theory of value was important, perhaps for ethical reasons. I concluded that Marxist economics (at least value theory) was just a waste of time, I feel that I should warn you.

On the other hand, "lifetime but wayward Marxist" Goodwin and also K. Lancaster proposed interesting growth models, which are worth consideration today.

Sincerely, Kiefer.Wolfowitz 19:56, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Technical progress (economics)

The article Technical progress (economics) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No references in actual, direct use at all.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

The original name of the article was "technical progress function", which was developed by the economist Nicholas Kaldor. The present title of the article does not make much sense.
