Adam Smith's Theory of Value
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. This research
paper delves into the conflict of Adam Smith's Theory of Value.
When Adam Smith set forth his own Theory of Value it was vastly
different from the idealistic view of his forebears. The term
"value", in Smith's theory, corresponds largely to what is
usually termed "use-value" - the value-in-use of some good.
Within this paper we find that this treatment as well does not
always advance a theory that is in all ways sound. Bibliography
lists 12 sources.

Adam Smith: Theory Of Growth And International Trade
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Adam Smith, considered quite universally to be the father of contemporary economics (Rouse, 1995), grew up under the watchful eye of his widowed mother and attended college on a scholarship. Clearly immersed in the principles of philosophy and logic, he ultimately turned his talents toward economics where he cultivated his popular - if not greatly debated - economic theory of growth and international trade as being founded upon the division of labor, a reality Smith (1991) claims is integral to the quest for wealth and the growth of a society. The greatest turning point in his life is unarguably when he published Wealth of Nations, which inevitably cast him 'as the fountainhead of contemporary economic thought' (The Library of Economics and Liberty, 2002). Bibliography lists 15 sources.

Airline Industry Model: Tight Oligopoly
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing the industry structure that emerges as mergers and acquisitions continue to occur within the airline industry. It is not the old airlines that consistently gain highest ratings in customer satisfaction, safety, efficiency and performance, but rather Southwest - the only one that refused to operate in the same manner as the older, more established airlines. The anti-competitive bent to which major airlines cling ultimately is bad for them as well as for consumers. Whereas a loose oligopoly may be beneficial in the airline industry, one that is as highly concentrated as that which exists now is not. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
