The Intellectual Legacy of Jules Dupuit
The achievements of Jules Dupuit (1804–1866), French engineer and economist, policymaker and molder of the canon of neoclassical microeconomic theory, are displayed in their entirety through Yves Breton and Gérard Klotz‘s compilation of his collected works, Oeuvres économiques complètes (Éditions Economica, 2009). This magisterial two-volume set makes available for the first time in a convenient format all of Dupuit‘s major and subsidiary writing…
Dupuit and the Railroads
Guy Numa is justified in calling attention to our erroneous translation of a passage from Jules Dupuit's Dictionnaire article of 1853. His conclusions, however, regarding Dupuit's "global" policy prescriptions on the operation of railroads, and their semi-convergence with the views of Walras, do not withstand scrutiny when examined against the totality of Dupuit's economic writings. In this article we reaffirm and defend our body of work that dep…

Ethics, Engineering, and Natural Monopoly
An Economic Analysis of the Protestant Reformation
This paper seeks to explain the initial successes and failures of Protestantism on economic grounds. It argues that the medieval Roman Catholic Church, through doctrinal manipulation, the exclusion of rivals, and various forms of price discrimination, ultimately placed members seeking the Z good "spiritual services" on the margin of defection. These monopolistic practices encouraged entry by rival firms, some of which were aligned with civil gove…

The Dupuit–Marshall Theory of Competitive Equilibrium
Working with the classical expressions of demand, supply and market adjustments, the French engineer Jules Dupuit developed a model of competitive market adjustments in different time dimensions that anticipated Marshall’s ‘period analysis’ on all important points. Dupuit’s attempt to handle the complexity of economic phenomena in a scientific fashion, by utilizing the ceteris paribus method, and the integration of this method with the ‘facts’ of…

Sacred Trust
The Church dominated society in the Middle Ages and functioned as a quasi-government, providing public and private goods. This book is the first to examine specific institutions in the Church in the Middle Ages in economic terms. Other books have argued generally that the Church either had a positive or negative effect on economic development. The authors of this book look more closely at the actual Church institutions and practices and describe …
