Talk:Microeconomics
From Academic Kids
There are several basics that need to be worked on. First is basic consumer theory (indifference curves and how these cause a response to income and price changes) and producer theory (isoquants(sp?) marginal cost, etc), and how they combine to create demand and supply curves. Right now we have basically a dictionary with lots of terms, but no real link between them, because the underlying producer and consumer theory is missing. I mean, how can you possibly explain natural monopoly or factors of production adequately without a decent understanding of how producer theory works in the competitive state? I plan on working on these topics as I have time in the upcomming months, but I know that there are quite a few other people in wikipedia who know as much as I do on microeconomics topics.

- Added Consumer theory. I will start working on Producer theory soon. By the way, if I any of the microeconomics articles are confusing or need more examples, feel free to comment in the talk page or in my talk page. Jrincayc 13:09 2 Jun 2003 (UTC)
Barriers to entry
Should we add an article about "barriers to entry", or just leave it under the general spectrum of the other articles?
- Sure, if you're got enough material for it, it could stand its own article. Make sure to check what else is out there, we have market power and I'm sure some other related material. If you do write it, make sure to cite your sources. - Taxman 02:26, May 10, 2005 (UTC)
