  A dolgozat a magyar mobilszolgáltatások áraival kapcsolatos kérdéseket vizsgálja. Számba veszi a mérést akadályozó legfontosabb nehézségeket, melyek lényeges dilemma elé állítják a kutatót. Vagy megpróbálunk egy aggregált mutatót konstruálni, amely a korábbi adatokra épül és inkább a múltbeli, illetve jelenbeli helyzetet jellemzi – feláldozva ezzel az előrejelzés lehetőségét –, vagy megkerülendő a nehézségeket elméleti modellt alkalmazunk az árak jövőbeni felvázolására. E probléma érzékeltetésére két, a gyakorlatban alkalmazott mutatót és azok hiányosságait ismerteti a szerző, majd a jól ismert Bertrand-modell helytállóságát igazolja. A modell eredménye az árverseny, melynek alátámasztására empirikus tényeket sorakoztat fel a szerző.

  The article illustrates how to build up a practical and suitable economic model of public administration. The system described by the author cannot explain every single phenomena of the so called "public administration acting space". The primary function of the model is rather to prepare the public administration (as a test object) for other, further analysis - especially for measuring performance. The conclusion of the article is that public administration is not a special test object. A significant quantity of measurement tools is available so that we can understand the main issues of the operation of public administration - from an economic point of view.

  Professor András (Andrew) Bródy, one of the most outstanding of post-war Hungarian economists, perhaps the most spirited member of his generation, died at the age of 86, on 3rd of December, 2010. For several decades he had been dealing with the mathematical formulation of Marxian theory. He was an internationally respected model-builder, applying input-output analysis, also working with Professor Leontief in this field. He was both in full command of high-level theoretical knowledge, and proficient in the latest methodological approaches. He also conducted pioneering research into the application of
  the laws of thermodynamics to economic problems. His international fame was initially based on his book Prices and Proportions, published in Hungarian (1969) and also in English by North-Holland (1970). Several articles, conference papers, and several other books he wrote or edited broadened this recognition,
  the most important landmarks being Ciklus és szabályozás (Cycles and Regulation, 1980) in Hungarian, Slowdown (1982) in both English and Hungarian, and finally, Near Equilibrium in English (2004) and Chinese (2009). Fortunately, he participated in the work of our department, the History of Economic Thought at the Corvinus University of Budapest between 1995 and 2005. This article in his honour is a brief summary of his achievements and a reader’s selection of his writings prepared for the students of our department which reflect his views on the state of economic theories; also attached is a bibliography of his most important publications.
