Abstract

This article surveys computational approaches to classical‐Marxian economics. These approaches include a range of techniques—such as numerical simulations, agent‐based models, and Monte Carlo methods—and cover many areas within the classical‐Marxian tradition. We focus on three major themes in classical‐Marxian economics, namely price and value theory; inequality, exploitation, and classes; and technical change, profitability, growth and cycles. We show that computational methods are particularly well‐suited to capture certain key elements of the vision of the classical‐Marxian approach and can be fruitfully used to make significant progress in the study of classical‐Marxian topics.
