Independence Of Allocative Efficiency From Distribution In The Theory Of Public Goods, Ted Bergstrom, Richard Cornes
Independence Of Allocative Efficiency From Distribution In The Theory Of Public Goods, Ted Bergstrom, Richard Cornes
Ted C Bergstrom
When is the Pareto optimal amount of public goods independent of income distribution? Subject to some regularity conditions, the answer is when preferences of every individual i can be represented by a utility function of the form U(X_i,Y)=A(Y)X_i+B_i(Y) where X_i is i's consumption of private goods and Y is the amount of public goods.

Can Courtship Be Cheatproof?, Ted Bergstrom, Richard Manning
Ted C Bergstrom
In 1983, I told Richard Manning about Gale and Shapley's beautiful 1962 paper on matching. He asked whether in the Gale-Shapley it was in the interest of all participants to tell the truth. We rather quickly showed that in general it is not in the interest of the recipients of offers to be truthful. In fact we were able to show that no mechanism can guarantee efficient assignments and be cheatproof. We were very pleased. We sent it to a journal, only to learn that Al Roth had beat us to it in a paper that was to appear in …

Counting Groves-Ledyard Equilibria Via Degree Theory, Ted Bergstrom, Carl Simon, Charles Titus
Counting Groves-Ledyard Equilibria Via Degree Theory, Ted Bergstrom, Carl Simon, Charles Titus
Ted C Bergstrom
A Nash equilibria of the Groves-Ledyard mechanism is Pareto optimal. But this may not be much use if there are many distinct Nash equilibria, since it is not clear that the mechanism would converge on any one of them. This paper shows that if preferences are quasi-linear, the Groves-Ledyard mechanism has a unique Nash equilibrium, but even in the simplest class of preferences in which demands for public goods are affected by incomes, the number of equilibria increases exponentially with the number of consumers. The paper makes use of some pretty mathematics and even sports a drawing of Whitney's umbrella.

Replacing The U.S. Income Tax With A Progressive Consumption Tax : A Sequenced General Equilibrium Approach, Don Fullerton, John B. Shoven, John Whalley
Replacing The U.S. Income Tax With A Progressive Consumption Tax : A Sequenced General Equilibrium Approach, Don Fullerton, John B. Shoven, John Whalley
Don Fullerton
This paper examines the welfare consequences of changing the current U.S. income tax system to a progressive consumption tax. We compute a sequence of single period equilibria in which savings decisions depend on the expected future return to capital. In the presence of existing income taxes, the U.S. economy is assumed to lie on a balanced growth path. With the change to a consumption tax, individuals save more and initially consume less. As the capital stock grows, consumption eventually overtakes that of the original path, and the economy approaches the new balanced growth path with higher consumption and a greater …

Research Methods Into Language/Code Switching And Synthesis Of Findings Into Theory, Kristine Fitch
Research Methods Into Language/Code Switching And Synthesis Of Findings Into Theory, Kristine Fitch
Kristine Muñoz
While language switching among multilinguals has been studied in a wide variety of contexts, few attempts have been made to generalize or to integrate findings into useful communication theory. Since language switching is an important part of personal as well as group identity and since issues surrounding language identity are often a focal point of interethnic conflict, the speech act of switching language merits a more concentrated study. This can be accomplished through such techniques as ethnographic description, consisting of participant observation, interviewing, and breaching experiments; conversation analysis of bilingual interaction; and examination of communication behavior through literature. Such diverse …
The California Gray Whale (Eschrichtius Robustus): A Review Of The Literature On Migratory And Behavioral Characteristics, James Bird
James E Bird
The literature search presented in Appendix A was performed to characterize the normal migratory behavior of the gray whale and to determine if introduced sound from a variety of sources, including offshore oil and gas development, would have an observable effect on that behavior. Because of the limited data on behavioral reaction of gray whales to noise and disturbance, we have also included in this literature review information on the behavioral reaction of other baleen whale species.
A Dialogue On Comparable Worth, Michael Gold
A Dialogue On Comparable Worth, Michael Gold
Michael Evan Gold
[Excerpt] Comparable worth is the EEO issue of the decade. The purpose of this dialogue is to present both, or at least two, sides of the debate over comparable worth. In essence, it raises the question of whether women are underpaid for their work. Secretaries, for example, earn less than stockbrokers. Is it mere coincidence that most secretaries and social workers are women, while most plumbers and stockbrokers are men? For the sake of convenience, the participants in this dialogue have agreed that jobs held predominantly by women may be referred to as " women's jobs" or "women's work" and …
Licensure Of Health Care Professionals: The Consumer's Case For Abolition, Charles Baron
Licensure Of Health Care Professionals: The Consumer's Case For Abolition, Charles Baron
Charles H. Baron
While state medical licensure laws ostensibly are intended to promote worthwhile goals, such as the maintenance of high standards in health care delivery, this Article argues that these laws in practice are detrimental to consumers. The Article takes the position that licensure contributes to high medical care costs and stifles competition, innovation and consumer autonomy. It concludes that delicensure would expand the range of health services available to consumers and reduce patient dependency, and that these developments would tend to make medical practice more satisfying to consumers and providers of health care services.

Santa Monica, Derek Shearer
Santa Monica, Derek Shearer
Derek Shearer
Santa Monica, California — a city with a population of 88000 located in the greater Los Angeles region — is currently involved in a comprehensive replanning of the city's future land use to the year 2000. The process that the city has embarked upon is designed to be participatory and democratic rather than bureaucratic and autocratic. Because of political conditions in the city and the widespread conservative attack on government championed by President Reagan, Santa Monica's planning effort is highly controversial.
