Riassunto
In this thesis we walk a historical path along the main stages of the “integrability of demand” theory, starting with the work of G. B. Antonelli and arriving to “Preference, Utility and Demand” by Hurwicz and Uzawa. In doing this we examine the main results of this branch of Microeconomics both from a theoretical and a mathematical point of view. Furthermore we determine the relation between the utility maximization framework and the revealed preference approach on the one side and the links between this latter and “individual decision making” theory on the other side.
