Abstract

Economic theory is largely formulated on a general level, without explicit reference to time and space. Institutional assumptions are often implicit, if not absent. If spelled out at all, they are usually limited to competitive markets and private property rights. Economic processes do not seem to be situated in real time, but in a kind of abstract time in which history does not matter.
