Lord Keynes — Lavoie on Administered Prices

The consequences of this are the following:
(1) one of the major (alleged) mechanisms driving an economy to Walrasian full employment equilibrium collapses and the whole notion that market economies have a strong tendency to general equilibrium must be abandoned, and

(2) the Austrian (or Misesian) notion that market economies have a strong tendency to economic coordination effected by firms’ adjusting their prices towards market clearing values is fundamentally flawed and wrong.
As we've argued many times here at MNE.
