Abstract

We have seen in Chapter II that one may define, in a natural way, general equilibria of the Cournot-Nash type, even when full allowance is made for the selling of commodities by monopolists to monopolists, and the direct flow of monopolists’ profits to shareholding consumers. We have developed proofs of existence of these equilibria under certain conditions on the economy. Several of these conditions, however, are very complex and very strong.
