   Extractions: English economist and logician whom, simultaneously with Carl Menger and Léon Walras , launched the Marginalist Revolution of 1871-4 that gave birth to Neoclassical economics. Stanley Jevons (as he preferred to be called) was born in Liverpool on September 1, 1835, the ninth child of a family of prosperous iron merchants. However, the death of his mother in 1845 and the collapse of the family firm in 1848 circumscribed Jevons's opportunities. His early education was acquired at home, the Liverpool Mechanics Institute and finally at a preparatory school in London. As a Unitarian (a liberal non-conformist Protestant sect), Jevons was legally barred from taking the traditional educational route through Oxford, Cambridge, etc. So, in 1852, Jevons entered University College London (UCL), a Benthamite institution that accepted non-conformists, to study chemistry, mathematics and logic. It was here that he came under the influence of the logician Augustus De Morgan. However, financial circumstance forced him to withdraw in his second year and accept a post as Assayer at the new Royal Mint in Sydney, Australia. After arriving in Sydney in 1854, Jevons spent his spare time (and there was plenty of it) studying the climate, geography, geology and flora of Australia. He took daily meteorological observations and hobnobbed with the local scientific community. A local dispute over railway funding led Jevons to study up on economics. Jevons read Dionysus Lardner's 1850 book

   Extractions: Stanley Jevons 's father was Thomas Jevons and his mother was Mary Anne Roscoe. Thomas Jevons was an iron merchant but showed lots of talent both as an inventor of iron boats and as a writer on various legal and economic topics. Mary Anne Roscoe was the daughter of the historian William Roscoe. Thomas and Mary Roscoe had eleven children and Stanley was the ninth. The family were Unitarians, a liberal branch of the Protestant Church that bases its religious beliefs on reason, and Stanley was brought up with these beliefs. There is very clear evidence in Jevons later writings of the Unitarian influence. Stanley was sent to London to became a boarder at University College School in 1850. In the following year, still only sixteen years of age, he entered University College with a view to study chemistry and botany. He later wrote that his interest in the way that society worked began in his early days as a student, particularly since he could observe the condition of the poor in London as he walked about the city. He wrote (see [4]):- I began to think that I could and ought to do more than others. A vague desire and determination grew upon me.

William Stanley Jevons (1835-1882) was an English logician and economist who expounded in his book The Theory of Political Economy (1871) the "final" (marginal) utility theory of value. Jevons' work, along with similar discoveries made by Karl Menger in Vienna (1871) and by Léon Walras in Switzerland (1874), marked the opening of a new period in the history of economic thought. Jevons broke off his studies of the natural sciences in London in 1854 to work as an assayer in Sydney, where he acquired an interest in political economy. Returning to England in 1859, he published General Mathematical Theory of Political Economy in 1862, outlining the marginal utility theory of value, and A Serious Fall in the Value of Gold in 1863. For Jevons, the utility or value to a consumer of an additional unit of a product is inversely related to the number of units of that product he already owns, at least beyond some critical quantity. It was for The Coal Question (1865), in which he called attention to the gradual exhaustion of Britain's coal supplies, that he received public recognition. The most important of his works on logic and scientific methods is his Principles of Science (1874), as well as The Theory of Political Economy (1871) and The State in Relation to Labour (1882).

    Extractions: WILLIAM JEVONS Jevons began his Theory of Political Economy with the notion that "value depends entirely upon utility". This position was virtually the polar opposite of that taken by many of the leading classical authors, he further emphasized that there was a distinction between total utility and what he termed as the "final degree of utility". (Black: Vol. 2: 1009) Unlike Ricardo, who might have said that pearls have value because people need to dive for them, Jevons took the position that pearls have value because buyers get utility from them and that people dive for pearls because pearls have such value. The level of utility depends upon the number of pearls people presently posses. To explain Jevons's value theory, we must therefore begin with his law of diminishing marginal utility (Brue: 250). Jevons said that utility cannot be measured directly. This subjective satisfaction can only be estimated by observing human behavior and noting preferences. He also rejected any attempts to compare the intensities of pleasure and pain among different people. However, an individual is able to compare utilities of successive units of a single good and is also able to compare the marginal utilities of several goods. Utilizing a graphical depiction, he was able to ascertain that total utility increases at a diminishing rate. Each successive unit of "X" adds less to total utility than did the previous unit. (Brue: 250-252) Jevons law of diminishing marginal utility solved the diamond water paradox that puzzled many of the classical economist. Adam Smith believed that utility had nothing to do with the magnitude of exchange value because water is more useful than diamonds, whereas diamonds are more valuable than water. The principle of diminishing marginal utility reveals that whereas the total utility of water is greater than the total utility of diamonds, the "final degree of utility" or marginal utility of diamonds is far greater than the marginal utility of water. (Brue: 252)

Définition Auteurs  Idées principales de l'école néoclassique Définition C'est un courant de pensée actuellement dominant dont les origines sont datées des années en référence à la publication des ouvrages des trois pères fondateurs : Menger, Jevons et Walras. Ces trois auteurs, représentant le courant néoclassique, appartiennent, chacun, à une école différente : · École de Vienne (école autrichienne) Menger · École de Lausanne (école française) Walras et Pareto · École de Cambridge (école anglaise) Jevons D’une façon générale, les économistes néoclassiques conçoivent la société comme un ensemble d’individus libres et égaux. Ils raisonnent au niveau micro-économique à partir d’hypothèses sur le comportement des agents (l’agent est rationnel , il calcule, cherche à maximiser son utilité ou son profit sous la contrainte de ses ressources,…) et sur le fonctionnement des marchés, où ces agents se rencontrent ( concurrence pure et parfaite Auteurs MENGER Carl, économiste autrichien né en 1840 et décédé en 1921, a écrit entre autres l'ouvrage

    Extractions: Entnommen aus: The New Palgrave. A Dictionary of Economics, hrsg. von John Eatwell, Murray Milgate, Peter Newman, London/Basingstoke, 4 Bde., 1987 Jevons was the ninth child of Thomas Jevons, a Liverpool iron merchant, and Mary Arm, daughter of William Roscoe, a noted banker, historian and art collector of the same city. The family were Unitarians and Stanley's background was thus that of a cultured and well-to-do Nonconformist family; but his childhood was shadowed by the death of his mother in 1845, the t'nental illness of his eldest brother, which began in 1847; and the failure of the family business in 1848. Jevons's schooling, begun at the Mechanics Institute High School in Liverpool, was continued at University College School, London, and in 1851 he entered University College London itself to study chemistry and mathematics. At this stage Jevons apparently intended to enter a business career without completing his degree but when a post as assayer to the newly established Mint in Sydney, Australia, was offered to him in 1853 he decided to take it, encouraged by his father, whose finances had never been restored after the family bankruptcy in 1848. Jevons spent the years from 1854 to 1859 in Australia, applying his knowledge of chemistry at the Sydney Mint and studying, mainly botany and meteorology, in his spare time. From 1857 onwards his interest turned towards social and economic questions; he began to see his life-work as lying in 'the study of Man' and decided that this involved returning to England to improve his academic qualifications. Arriving home in September 1859 he re-enrolled at University College London, completing his BA in 1860 and then the MA course in 1862.
