Authorship in Burroughs\u27s Red Night Trilogy and Bowles\u27s Translation of Moroccan Storytellers
In his article Authorship in Burroughs\u27s Red Night Trilogy and Bowles\u27s Translation of Moroccan Storytellers Benjamin J. Heal discusses Paul Bowles\u27s and William S. Burroughs\u27s varying interrogation of the constructed nature of authorship. In his study Heal focuses on the publication history of Burroughs\u27s Cities of the Red Night (1981), which was written with considerable collaborative influence and Bowles\u27s translation of illiterate Moroccan storytellers, where his influence over the production and editing of the texts is blurred as are the roles of author and translator. Through an examination of Bowles\u27s and Burroughs\u27s authorship strategies in parallel with an explication of the poststructuralist authorship theories of Barthes and Foucault, Heal presents an analysis of the extent of Bowles\u27s and Burroughs\u27s critique of the Western construction of authorship
Existence, Local Uniqueness, and Optimality of a Marginal Cost Pricing Equilibrium in an Economy with Increasing Returns
This paper proposes a notion of equilibrium for an economy with increasing returns to scale and gives sufficient conditions for its existence and local uniqueness. The optimality properties of this equilibrium notion follows from our previous investigations on economies with increasing returns.
The notion of equilibrium used in this paper, i.e. a marginal cost pricing equilibrium, is a family of consumption plans, production plans, prices and lump sum taxes such that: all the first order conditions are satisfied in equilibrium; the lump sum taxes cover the aggregate losses of firms with increasing returns to scale; all markets for goods and services clear.
The intended model is an economy with a regulated natural monopoly and a large number of unregulated competitive firms
