The Advantages Of Local Extremes Of Systems When Considering Energy Supply Trends Toward Size And Complexity, Harold A. Kurstedt Jr., Arthur M. Squires, William A. Kramer

UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy

Recent discussions of new energy sources, including some debate concerning the relative merits of a number of approaches, reflect an emerging trend toward extremes in size and complexity of sources. This trend is justified as a fundamental premise for future energy development. The trend is related to similar trends in commerce, business, medical service, and transportation. The recent sharp increases in marginal energy costs, along with governmental intervention in the energy scene, are accelerating a focus on the concept of an energy park, at one extreme, and on small locally-controlled sources of energy, at the other A key to successful …

Toward A Physical Theory Of Economic Activities, Tran Huu Dung May 1978

Toward A Physical Theory Of Economic Activities, Tran Huu Dung

Economics Faculty Publications

A critical survey of all definitions of economics shows that, logically, a study of economic activities from a physical point of view must be considered an integral part of the discipline. One such study could reveal the nature of value-in-use often overlooked in economic theory.

It is posited that the process of use can be taken as the basic analytical building block of whose variations and combinations all economic activities can be shown to be composed. Each use can appear in one of three forms: pure use, consumption, and production (or productive use). The physical criterion on which this distinction …

Government Regulation And Small Business, Testimony Prepared For The U.S. House Of Representatives Committee On Small Business, Murray L. Weidenbaum Mar 1978

Government Regulation And Small Business, Testimony Prepared For The U.S. House Of Representatives Committee On Small Business, Murray L. Weidenbaum

Murray Weidenbaum Publications

This testimony presents four major points regarding H.R. 7739 "Small Business Impact Statement Act of 1977" and H.R. 10632 "Small Business Regulatory Relief Act." First, there is concern that regulation hits smaller business disproportionately hard. Second, requiring a regulatory impact statement is a good one, as it helps government understand the effects of its actions. Third, the amount of paperwork required by specific impact statements is concerning. Finally, public policy would be better served by requiring a single comprehensive impact statement prior to the issuance of each new regulation.

Unlike the traditional regulating commissions, the agencies engaging in this type of regulation often have jurisdiction over virtually all companies, including many sectors of the economy which are generally not thought of as being regulated.
