separate

Use when staking a Journal of Economic Theory (JET) contribution against the theory frontier — show precisely which assumption is weakened, which result is generalized, or which new phenomenon is characterized relative to the closest existing theorems. Positions the result; it is not a standalone survey.

When to use

• Writing related-work paragraphs for a JET theory paper
• Defending originality at the desk screen
• Positioning results theorem-relative to the nearest existing results
• Building a theorem-delta table
• Identifying deltas in assumptions, generality, objects, or constructiveness

When not to use

• Standalone survey
• Broad empirical literature review
• Topic-relative positioning
