For any good, as the price of the good rises, the substitution effect makes consumers purchase less of it, and more of substitute goods; for most goods, the income effect (due to the effective decline in available income due to more being spent on existing units of this good) reinforces this decline in demand for the good. But a Giffen good is so strongly an inferior good (being more in demand at lower income) that this contrary income effect more than offsets the substitution effect, and the net effect of the good's price rise is to increase demand for it."@en }
