Повний текст джерелаThorstein Veblen, author of The Theory of the Leisure Class (1899), is memorialized in economics by the “Veblen effect,” a term introduced by Harvey Leibenstein to represent a positive consumer demand response to an increase in price. However, Leibenstein’s 1950 QJE article introducing the world to the “Veblen effect” does not cite Veblen as one of its 17 references.I begin this dissertation by revisiting Veblen’s theory of consumer behavior and evaluating its subsequent treatment in the economics literature. I find that Leibenstein (1950) misunderstands Veblen’s concept of “conspicuous consumption” and contradicts Veblen’s empirical predictions.How might Veblen’s theory be interpreted more faithfully with relevance to present-day markets? I suggest that the notion of “Veblen goods” and “Veblen consumers” is misleading, because Veblen’s theories applied to nearly all goods and consumers. My alternative approach is to look for attributes and corresponding prices whose market behavior is in line with Veblen’s predictions. I divide the attributes of goods into three classes, and I suggest that each class has its own hedonic price component: “useful,” “decorative,” and “invisible” attributes.Invisible attributes cannot be detected by the consumer’s own unaided sensory apparatus. Examples of invisible attributes are a good’s market price, scarcity, reputation, ratings, place of origin, microbial content, organic certification, and age. I refer to decorative and invisible attributes, together, as “Veblen attributes”; and I refer to the premiums consumers are willing to pay for Veblen attributes as “Veblen premiums.”In this thesis, I attempt to observe some Veblen attributes and Veblen premiums in present-day consumer markets. I report experimental results from the U.S. retail markets for beer (part II), wine (part III), and food (part IV). I employ a variety of experimental techniques, including consumer surveys, blind tasting experiments, lab experiments, and undercover experiments. I include several first-person essays to round out the narrative

Resumo: Com a emergência da sociedade burguesa de mercado no século XIX o dinheiro passou a desempenhar um papel fundamental na nova configuração, uma vez que a manutenção e expansão de tal sociedade pressupõem a regularidade nas trocas e, conseqüentemente, uma economia monetária desenvolvida a ponto de assegurar essa regularidade. Alguns romancistas, em particular os realistas franceses, demonstraram em seus romances a emergência dessa sociedade motivada pelo lucro, tendo o dinheiro como elemento central de suas narrativas. A Comédia Humana de Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) é considerada o maior registro literário da sociedade francesa desse período e muitas de suas tramas são atravessadas por relações mediadas pelo dinheiro. Mais tarde, sociólogos como Karl Marx (1818-1883), Georg Simmel (1858-1918) e Max Weber (1864-1920) desenvolveram suas análises numa perspectiva crítica à sociedade de mercado, destacando o dinheiro como elemento racionalizador das relações e desagregador dos laços tradicionais. Nesse sentido, este trabalho pretende mobilizar as categorias analíticas da sociologia clássica para analisar parte da obra de Balzac a fim de verificar como o romancista via a relação que os indivíduos de sua época estabeleciam com o dinheiro e quais os principais impactos dessa relação na moderna sociedade
Abstract: The raising of a bourgeois market society in the nineteenth century resulted in the great importance that money started to play in the new social arrangement, since the maintenance and expansion of that society predicted the regularity in exchanges and, as a consequence, a monetary economy developed to the point that insured this regularity. Some novelists, particularly French realists ones, showed in their novels the emergence of this market society motivated by profits, having money as the central element of their stories. The Human Comedy, by Honoré de Balzac (1799-1850) is considered the biggest literary register of the French society of that period and many of its plots are crossed by relations mediated by money. Afterwards, sociologists like Karl Marx (1818-1883), Georg Simmel (1858-1918) and Max Weber (1864-1920) developed their studies in a critical perspective from the market society, contrasting money as the rational element of relations and disintegrator of traditional ties. Therefore, this paper aims to mobilize the analytical categories of classical sociology in order to analyze part of Balzac?s work with the intention of examine how the novelist used to see the relationship that individuals of his time established with money and what was the main effects of this relationship in that new society

Повний текст джерелаIn the first half of the early modern period, time of political and religious troubles, and of great geographical discoveries that opened new trade opportunities, we approached the subject of hat and headdresses history in their technical, commercial (in the capital, the Court, the kingdom and abroad), esthetical (evolutions of forms, embroideries, feathers, hat badges) and social ways (manners and signification of wearing them). In the peculiar Parisian context of this period, this trade, changed by the apparition of beaver and the social obligation to have everybody’s head covered, has a deep impact not only on the evolution of the Parisian hatters’ wealth but also on Parisians’ and Courtiers’ wardrobes themselves. Without headdresses preserved, details about them are scattered in documentary sources: for example, we can find them in the writings of authors and moralizing people, in engravings of French people like Abraham Bosse, in works of Flemish painters like Jan Miense Molenaer, but also in criminal archives where they can be sometimes even motives of murder! Far from just being clothing accessories, headdresses in the early modern period are essential to socialize and characterize human beings: through them, we can grasp national identity, age, wealth, profession, social status and knowledge of civility rules (especially to raisesomebody’s cap to someone, a tradition established from medieval times). Also, at that time, their importance is reconsidered because of the challenge by the Protestants about their social significance and by the discovery of new societies with other relation to clothes, which put the traditional and European approach into perspective

Повний текст джерелаAbstract This paper investigates the determinants of innovation among Australian regions, focusing on the spatial dimension of innovation and innovative-related activities in creating spillover effects. Through `exploratory' and `confirmatory' spatial data analysis we find evidence that innovation activity is spatially dependent, and that there is evidence of spatial clustering of highly innovative regions. Applying spatial econometric techniques, we estimate a Spatial (panel) Durbin Model to control for spatial autocorrelation to analyse the driving forces of innovation throughout regions. We find that the number of university campuses within a region along with university research has a significant and positive effect on local levels of innovation. In terms of spillover effects, we find that population density creates a negative indirect effect; where neighbouring region's population density adversely impacts innovation levels.

Lin, Oh Zhi. "Peak Pricing: An Analysis of the South Australian Electricity Market." Thesis, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/108122.
Повний текст джерелаAbstract This paper examines whether there is justification for the implementation of peak pricing in the South Australian electricity market. Peak pricing in the South Australian electricity market appears to improve social welfare by improving consumer surplus, but this analysis is based on strong assumptions that include constant marginal cost and zero cross elasticity of demand. An analysis of peak pricing was investigated with varying cross elasticity of demand. It was found that a greater cross price elasticity value the greater the social welfare improvement in the off-peak model due to a greater increase in off-peak electricity consumption. However, the converse happens for the peak model. In the analysis of benefits outweighing costs, the estimated metering charge to consumers is approximately $120, but the savings on household bills due to time of use pricing almost covers the charge. However, the total expenditure on metering is likely to exceed savings on network costs of approximately $134 million over ten years. Hence, the costs are likely to outweigh the benefits of metering, the case for time of use pricing based is weak.

Maxted, Jason. "International Trade and Job Polarisation: Are all the middle-waged jobs disappearing?" Thesis, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/108435.
Повний текст джерелаThis thesis investigates the in uence that international trade exposure has on the com- position of the labour force in the manufacturing sector in Australia between 2008 and 2013. In particular we investigate whether the phenomenon of job polarisation is present within the industry, and whether increased trade exposure contributes to this. Thus we have had to carefully map employment data with trade data. Our panel data xed e ects estimation suggests that job polarisation does not exist within the manufacturing sector. This does not rule out its existence when accounting for the entire labour force however. The most significant finding is that increased exposure to trade leads to a movement of labour down the wage distribution. Such a finding has the potential to have significant policy implications.

Hersey, Timothy. "Identifying Marginal Returns to Education Through Social Networks." Thesis, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/108434.
Повний текст джерелаThis thesis explores the role of peers in influencing the decision of individuals to attend college and the resulting labour market outcomes. It proposes a model, combining the econometric methods of networks and treatment effects, to estimate the marginal treatment effect of education when peers have influence on the wage outcome and probability of treatment for an individual. Using Monte Carlo simulations, the effect of networks on the treatment effects model is investigated. We further explore the model by varying the network structure and conducting sensitivity analyses, considering the impact of networks on policy. Our results suggest that networks initially have a significant positive impact on the returns to education and the effects of policy. However, this effect is reduced once homophily in characteristics is introduced.

O'callaghan, David. "Lobbying and Income Inequality: Experimental Evidence." Thesis, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/108314.
Повний текст джерелаIn this paper we develop a simple two-stage model of lobbying with income inequality and examine our predictions in the laboratory. We found a treatment effect contradicting the theoretical predictions: Low wage subjects paired with high wage subjects over exert in a real effort task, beyond individual rationality, producing for the group at the expense of individual welfare. Neither inequality aversion nor competitive preferences explains the off-equilibrium behaviour. In the second stage, in contrast to much of the literature, subjects tended to exert effort in the contest quite close to SPNE. Delving deeper, we found those that contributed more tax revenue in the first stage exerted more effort in the contest in the second stage, despite it being a strictly dominated strategy. Inversely, those that contributed less exerted less. The effect was observed across treatments. Over-exertion of effort displayed by the higher contributors can potentially be explained by an entitlement effect within the preferences of players, which expresses as a dislike for equal splits of pots, which were not created equally.

Xenophon, Aleksis. "Electricity Consumption and Economic Growth in China: Assessing Granger Causality at Provincial, Electricity-Market and National Levels." Thesis, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/108497.
Повний текст джерелаThe following thesis investigates the relationship between electricity consumption and economic growth in China over the period 1985-2012. Long and short run Granger causal relationships between these variables are ascertained by applying a vector error correction model to national, electricity-market, and provincial-level data. A comparison is then made between the relationships obtained from these different datasets. The results suggest that a large amount of information is lost as a result of aggregation, with data at the national and electricity-market levels being unable to accurately reflect prevailing relationships observed at the provincial level. This observation is particularly relevant given the predominance of national level studies found in the literature.

Ziaul, Haque Qazi. "The Role of Monetary Shocks in the U.S Business Cycle." Thesis, 2013. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/108120.
Повний текст джерелаABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to illustrate how the basic Real Business Cycle (RBC) model can be modified to incorporate money in an attempt to construct monetary business cycle models of the U.S. economy. This is done for one case where money enters the model as direct lump-sum transfers to households and for the other case where money injections enter the economy through the financial system. Interestingly, the two channels generate very different responses to a money growth shock. In the first case, a positive money growth shock increases nominal interest rates and depresses economic activity, which is called the anticipated inflation effect. However, the popular consensus among economists is that nominal interest rates fall after a positive monetary shock. This motivates the construction of our second model where it is conjectured that the banking sector plays an important role in the monetary transmission mechanism and money is injected into the model through financial intermediaries. It is observed in this model that a positive monetary shock reduces interest rates and stimulates economic activity, which is called the liquidity effect. Furthermore, the statistics generated by the models show that monetary shocks have no effect on real variables when money enters as direct lump-sum transfers to households. On the contrary, such shocks have significant real impact when money enters through the financial system. Taken together, this implies that how money enters into the model significantly matters for the impact of monetary shocks and such shocks entering through financial intermediaries may be important in determining the cyclical fluctuations of the U.S. economy.
