For what it's worth, when I took HET at Michigan State with Warren Samuels, 
we studied multiple flavors of anarchism, German historical school, 
Aquinas, and Mercantilism among others.  This was along with the Smith, 
Ricardo, Marx etc. that you would expect.  A second course in the sequence, 
which I was unfortunately able to take, featured Marshall and Keynes, among 
others.  Although not taught by Samuels, I believe it also spent some time 
in a non-"whiggish" manner.
