Several answers spring to mind, but I would have thought that "Sraffian" is the least question-begging term (a case might also be made for "post-Sraffian").

Daniela's suggested would appear to include (or exclude, depending which way round you look at it) Marxist currents including followers of the New Interpretation and Temporal Single-System currents, among others.

I think the correct term is "modern clkassical political economy". You may have a good analysis of this 'problem' in: A. Roncaglia, Piero Sraffa, Palgrave Macmillan, 2009 . He defines three sraffian followers: Pasinetti, Garegnani e Sylos Labini (cfr. cap. 8).

As far as I know, the (unfortunate) term "Neo-Ricardian" was first introduced by Bob Rowthorn in a paper published in 1974 in the New Left Review. Later on it was also used by Frank Hahn in his 1982 CJE paper "The neo-Ricardians". Andres Lazzarini 2012/1/26 Matias Vernengo <[log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]>> Yep we prefer Sraffian. Neo-Ricardian was a name given by certain Marxist authors that suggested that Sraffa was not a Marxist. Also, more recently the term Neo-Ricardian has been used with respect to Barro´s Ricardian Equivalence theory.

That is correct. Look at "Conference of Socialist Economists and the Emergence of Heterodox Economics in Post-War Britain," Capital and Class, 75 (2001) for some discussion about the rise of the use of neo-Ricardian as a name for Sraffians.

I have a vague memory of reading somewhere, that followers of Pierro Sraffa dislike being called "neo-Ricardians". My problem is that I don't remember were have I read it. If there is anybody on the list (knowledgeable enough or considering himself a follower of Sraffa) that would know what is the proper way of addressing them, I would be much obliged for a tip, and - if possible - a citation.
