Switches and fake switches in methods of production
Article Abstract:
Sraffa's approach identified two characteristic elements, methodologically, it is of a 'dynamic' nature and, analytically, the switch-points are the common intersection of several wage-profit curves. An internal critique consisted in showing the existence of fake switches, which are at the intersection of two wage-profit curves but are not switch-points.
