Abstract
In this paper we consider the first general theories of multi-objective mathematical programming. They stem from optimization techniques in economics and are attributed to the economists Francis Edgeworth and Vilfredo Pareto. We will focus our attention on these ideas from a mathematical point of view.

Keywords
optimization, multi-objective mathematical programming, Edgeworth-box, Pareto-optimal, equilibrium.
