Dear colleagues May I draw to your attention the possibility of reading for a PhD in the history and/or philosophy of economics at City University London. My current student has submitted his thesis - on the history of national income accounting - and there is thus a vacancy. More information on the process may be seen at http://www.city.ac.uk/research/resdegrees/studentships.html . A number of University and Departmental studentships will be available for good applicants on a (highly) competitive basis. Part-time study is also a possibility. Some illustrative topics: The evolution of Hayek's monetary theory The micro and the macro of the labour theory of value Keynes's wartime vision of the post-war international financial system The methodology of orthodox and heterodox economics Rhetoric and pluralism 18th century providentialism The deadline for the University bursaries is 31 January. The deadline for Departmental ones is 30 April. Please do ask potential candidates to send me an email: [log in to unmask] - and do also disseminate this announcement, with care of course.
