======================== HES POSTING =================== 
 
 
Quoting from its parent directory at Prof. Harry Cleaver's homepage: 
> Chip C. Carriapa, The Political Origins of Neoclassical Economics, Ph.D. 
> Dissertation. ([log in to unmask]) The full text of this proposal is 
> available online. 
 
The proposal is online at 
    http://www.eco.utexas.edu/Homepages/faculty/Cleaver/chipprop.html 
and is dated April 1996 (rather late in the process, I judge).  Length is 
85K, of which the last 45K is a bibliography, especially strong on the 
Marxian tradition. 
 
Some HES subscribers --well, at least one editor-- will appreciate the 
opening words of section 3: 
>  Herbert Butterfield defines the Whig interpretation of history as "the 
>tendency in many historians to.....praise revolutions provided they have 
>been successful, to emphasize certain principles of progress in the past 
>and to produce a story which is a ratification if not a glorification of 
>the present."(17) This definition reduces many bourgeois (and some 
>marxist) scholars to Whigs. 
>  First, on this list is George Stigler. . . . 
 
Another PhD dissertation in progress under Prof. Cleaver's direction is 
Lee Sang-rack, Schumpeter on the Business Cycle: a Political Reading 
(proposal not online).
