======================= HES POSTING ================= 
 
I have it on good authority [which I cannot remember at the present 
moment] that the term "Neoclassical" was used first by T.B. Veblen in one 
of his essays on the nature of Economic Science [reference to which I do 
not have ready to hand].  Veblen was much exercized to show that the 
marginalist economists had not improved on the pre-marginalists from the 
point of view of economics as a science, so I think it most probably the 
case that he introduced the term.
