Hi
I’m writing a review of the history of the trade-off, starting with dialectics. I’m doing this for a very practical reason to do with the definition of a problem, leading to semi-automated ways of solving problems in general. However, I can find out very little about trade-offs. The Pareto-curve is the basis of multi-objective analysis, but I can find nothing about trade-offs in the Pareto literature. And very little about trade-offs in the literature of economics for that matter. Mostly it’s in medicine and population biology!
Where can I find out about trade-offs, please, especially first mentions.
Many thanks
Julian Vincent
