Oggetto: R: [SHOE] Two Samuelson Questions

Daniela Parisi forwarded me the e-mail reproduced below. I try to answer the question: " Did Samuelson ever  say "We are all Sraffians Now"? I have my doubts but have seen it quoted.".

I never read this quotation in a Samulson's writing. Maybe he told it somewhere, given the high opinion he had about Sraffa and some Sraffians. The quotation is referred in inverted commas in the entry "Neo-Ricardianism" written by Subgur Savren for The Elgar Companion of Marxist Economics.

In any case it should be interpreted in Samuelson's sense, i.e., in the sense that political economy is a continuous flow in evolution (from Questany, Smith, Ricardo, Marx, to Walras, Debreu, Sraffa, Solow, etc.), characterized by the same logical framework; a point highly disputable, ... but this was, roughly, his opinion!

Best regards,
Enrico

Caaro Enrico,
nella mia lista è venuta fuori oggi questo di Perelman e ho pensato che tu puoi essere la persona buona per la prima domanda.
Di salute non ho voglia di parlare,
grazie, ciao,
daniela

1. Did Samuelson ever  say "We are all Sraffians Now"?  I have my
doubts but have seen it quoted.

2. Where can I learn what Samuelson and Solow did at MIT's Rad Lab?
