Dear colleagues

May I draw to your attention the possibility of reading for a PhD in the history and/or philosophy of economics at City University London.  More information on the process
may be seen at http://www.city.ac.uk/research/resdegrees/studentships.html .  A number of University and Departmental studentships will be available for good applicants on a (highly) competitive basis.  Part-time study is also a possibility.

Here are some examples of the sort of thing you might wish to do.  They are illustrative examples only and applicants are not expected to pick one of them.

        - The evolution of Hayek's monetary theory
        - The micro and the macro of the labour theory of value
        - Keynes's wartime vision of the post-war international financial system
        - The methodology of orthodox and heterodox economics
        - Rhetoric and pluralism
        - 18th century providentialism

The deadline for the University bursaries is Friday 9 March 2012.  Unsuccessful applications   for University bursaries may still be considered for a Departmental one.  Applicants would have to agree a proposal with me well before 9 March.

Please do ask potential candidates to send me an email: [log in to unmask] - and do also disseminate this announcement, with care of course.  Many thanks.

Regards
