Vol. No: 28 - A
Series
Editor: Jeff E. Biddle, Ross B. Emmett and Marianne Johnson
ISBN: 9780857240637
Pub.
Date: 13 December 2010
Format: Hardback, pp.195
Synopsis:
This volume of
"Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology" offers
a unique insight into early American economic theory. The notes reproduced in
this volume were taken by a student, Maurice Beck Hexter, in 'Economics 11-12',
'Economic Theory', given by Frank William Taussig at Harvard during the
academic year 1921-1922. Taken together they represent the height of economic
theory being taught in graduate programs in the United States during this
period. Accompanying the notes are additional essays on how these notes relate
to broader economic thinking of this period, providing a comparison between the
Harvard viewpoint and that of previously published presentations of economic
theory at the University of Chicago and the University of Wisconsin.
