ecta-literature-positioning

separate

Use when locating an Econometrica result precisely within the methods / theory lineage it extends, and when writing the related-work paragraphs that pre-empt "how does this differ from X?" Builds the positioning — it does not judge overall fit (use ecta-topic-selection) or state the theorem (use ecta-theory-model).

When to use

• locating an Econometrica result within the methods / theory lineage
• writing related-work paragraphs
• pre-empting "how does this differ from X?"
• building the positioning
• mapping the lineage of assumptions
• stating the formal relationship between your result and the closest prior results

When not to use

• judging overall fit
• stating the theorem
