====================== HES POSTING =================== 
 
H.A. Innis wrote a paper entitled "The Strategy of Culture".  Innis, 
of course, was an Institutionalist.  The Historical Economics of Cliffe 
Leslie, the distinctive economics of Veblen, and the economics of 
"American Institutionalists" were all attempts to expose the effects of 
institutions, habits, and customs on economic behavior.  These three 
embody values.  When I put the four together (values, customs, habits, and 
institutions)  I think I have the substance of culture, insofar as it 
affects economic behavior.  Quite a lot has been written on the 
relationship of economics and culture.
