Matias may change his mind after reading the material on Keynes, Hayek and Pigou in the 12-volume *Hayek a Collaborative Biography* (2012-2015). 

Do HES members and officials approve of "*The* President of the History of Economics Society" writing that much material in *HOPE* is "not worth reading" and traveling 3000 miles to petition a Dean to sack an historian of economics?

Hi Robert: You may disagree with Keynes representation of Pigou, but I don't think it ranks with the other examples you suggest. Best, Matías

We need a history of external pressures and unscrupulous methods: from Keynes' misrepresentations of Pigou, to the Veritas Foundation, to an economist flying 3000 miles to petition a Dean to sack an historian of economics, to interventions in promotion exercises (e.g. the John Birch Austrians against Klein), to threats made to publishers, to corrupt anonymous referees' reports.

Suggestions? Information?
