One of the channels is the English version of Knut Wicksell's _Lectures on
Political Economy_ (1934-35), v. 1. General theory -- v. 2. Money. It was
translated from the Swedish by E. Classen and edited with an introduction
by L. Robbins. Economists at the London School of Economics found that
Wicksell synthesized two different traditions from the Continent--Vienna
and Lausanne. Wicksell revived Walras in England. Economists at the LSE, J.
R. Hicks and R. G. D. Allen, reread Walras and recognized that there was
something more important than had at first been believed.
Walras became 'famous' in England after 1930.
Moreover, in 1939 J. R. Hicks published _Value and Capital_ and established
the general equilibrium analysis in a modern style. He also provided the
question of stability in Walrasian tatonnement process and the question of
existence of an equilibrium solution in a system of simultaneous equations.
