On the optimal production and location of a labor-managed firm
Abstract. This paper endeavors to introduce space into the theory of the Labor-Managed firm (LMF) and to investigate its optimal production and location decisions. It is shown that the degree of returns to scale plays a key role in the determination of optimal production and location for an LMF, in particular, that the optimal location of an LMF is farther away from (closer to) the market as compared to a profit-maximizing firm (PMF) if the production function is of increasing (decreasing) returns to scale. We also demonstrate that the optimum location of an LMF moves closer towards the market as demand increases, regardless of whether the production function is of increasing or decreasing returns to scale. This finding is in sharp contrast with that in a capitalist economy.
