On Interpreting Ricardo: a reply to Sraffians

(Victoria) University of Manchester
Abstract
This paper seeks to clarify and defend aspects of the interpretation advanced in Interpreting Ricardo (Terry Peach, 1993) in the light of published criticisms by writers of a Sraffian persuasion. The principal areas of discussion include the corn model interpretation, the labour theory of value and the invariable measure of value, and the Ricardo-Sraffa relationship.
