What's your PhD in?

as a bio major i think the amount of math in economics makes it stem. not in a social science may but in a you have to do copious amounts of calculus for no apparent reason kind of way. all i have to do is funky little eighth grade algebra and im dying

Okishio's theorem doesn't really have any bearing on Marx's actual model of LTV, right? It requires prices to be formed by the equilibrium of a differential equation, as opposed to the average quantity of labor required to produce the good. Marx never really bothers justifying his model of price formation, probably bc it was the standard economic consensus that he took as a starting point, so I can see why more recent Marxists would like to jettison it and why Okishio would be relevant to the alternatives. but Marx's proposal of TRPF is so dependent on the technical details that I don't see why you'd expect it to be preserved when you change the model of price formation

this is my least favourite building on campus. why does it share a name with a building 10 minutes away? why is it so confusing to navigate? why does it have a cafeteria and lounge on the first floor and a lecture hall on the second floor? why are there no stairs?
