How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T18044563 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed.

-
A.
second fundamental theorem of welfare economics
The second fundamental theorem of welfare economics states that, under certain ideal conditions, any Pareto efficient allocation of resources can be achieved as a competitive market equilibrium given an appropriate redistribution of initial endowments.
-
B.
First Welfare Theorem
The First Welfare Theorem is a fundamental result in economics stating that, under certain ideal conditions, competitive market equilibria are Pareto efficient.
-
C.
welfare economics
Welfare economics is a branch of economics that evaluates how the allocation of resources affects social well-being, often using ethical and efficiency criteria to assess and guide public policy.
-
D.
Bergson–Samuelson social welfare function
The Bergson–Samuelson social welfare function is a formal tool in welfare economics that aggregates individual utilities into a single measure of social welfare to evaluate and compare economic states or policies.
-
E.
Gale–Nikaidō–Debreu theorem
The Gale–Nikaidō–Debreu theorem is a fundamental result in mathematical economics that provides conditions ensuring the existence (and sometimes uniqueness) of equilibrium in certain nonlinear and general equilibrium models.
