ABSTRACT
Potron explored the link between his economic model and the problem of unemployment in his ‘Contribution mathématique à ľétude de ľéquilibre entre la production et la consommation’ (Annexe VII of Louis Varlez and Max Lazard (eds), Assemblée Generate de I’Association Internationale pour la Lutte contre le Chômage. Gand, 5—6 Septembre 1913. Procès-verbaux des Reunions et Documents Annexes. Paris, Service des Publications de l’Association Internationale pour la Lutte contre le Chômage, 1914: 163–71). As in his letter to the Statistical Society of Paris, he made a plea for statistical research aimed at determining the numerical values of the coefficients of his model.
