Who among these was NOT considered as Maurice Allais’s primary influence?

  • Karl Marx

  • Léon Walras

  • Wilfredo Pareto

  • Irving Fisher

Answer

Contrary to the prominent influence of Léon Walras, Vilfredo Pareto, Irving Fisher, and Alfred Marshall on Maurice Allais's economic theories and mathematical economics approach, Karl Marx's ideas did not play a significant role in shaping Allais's intellectual development. Allais primarily drew inspiration from the neoclassical school of economics and expanded upon their theories, rather than being influenced by Marx's critique of capitalism and his labor theory of value.
