In this paper the existence of unemployment is partly explained as being the result of coordination failures. It is shown that as a result of self-fulfilling pessimistic expectations, even at Walrasian prices, a continuum of equilibria results, among which an equilibrium with approximately no...

In this paper we re-examine generic constrained suboptimality of equilibrium allocations with incomplete numeraire asset markets. We provide a general framework which is capable of resolving some issues left open by the previous literature, and encompasses many kinds of intervention in partially...

In a model of exchange with price-taking individuals, the existence of a continuum of nontrivial underemployment equilibria with walrasian prices is proved for a generic set of economies. The likelihood of the occurrence of these equilibria is higher the
