Abstract:
The heart of any market is its production price structure, which depending on the model type it can operate at a profit or at not for profit. All those models which operate at a profit could also be conceived in ways where they are producing at zero profits. Some of the models that are not for profits can also be viewed as operating below zero profits or at an economic loss. All these different production price structures are the result of different set of assumption made sometimes in confrontational paradigm mode(e.g. red socialism vrs bare capitalism) without any attempt to link them to higher level markets or models so as to have a better understanding of a) how they work or should be expected to work; and b) what type of paradigm evolution paths they should be expected to follow in the face of paradigm shift pressures. Yet it turns out to be that all these different, and apparently isolated production price structures had a common origin had thinkers like Adam Smith and Karl Marx looked at markets from the sustainability market point of view during their life time. Among the goals of this paper is to show how the sustainability market price can be used to extract well-known production price structures such as the red socialist model and the traditional market model as well as not so well-known ones and link them given specific assumptions
