The History of Economics Society is delighted to announce the winner of this year's Craufurd Goodwin Best Article in the History of Economics Prize. The Craufurd Goodwin Best Article Prize Committee, consisting of Amanar Akhabbar (chair), Nesrine Bentemessek, and Stefan Kolev, unanimously awarded the Prize for Best Article to Constantinos Repapis for “W. Stark, J. M. Keynes, and the Mercantilists” published in the Journal of the History of Economic Thought 43(1), 2021. Constantinos Repapis lures the reader into the works of the “not widely remembered” scholar Werner Stark (1909-1985) by considering the intellectual exchange between Stark and J. M. Keynes on the history of economic thought and, in particular, the case of the Mercantilists which was dealt with in chapter 23 of The General Theory. Born in 1909 in Marienbad, Bohemia, to a Jewish family, Stark received a PhD in political economy from Hamburg in 1934, studied at the LSE 1930–31, and received a PhD in law from Prague in 1936. He fled to Prague in 1934 and, in 1939, emigrated to the UK, where he became a protégé of J. M. Keynes. Stark was a sociologist of knowledge, an economic historian, and a historian of economic thought. Keynes and Stark started a captivating intellectual conversation on the history of economic thought. This conversation is still very much topical for our community of historians of economics. Coming from the sociology of knowledge, Stark’s considerations help “clarify the link between context and economic theory,” Repapis argues. By considering published material, correspondence and other archival material, it appears that, in his exchanges with Keynes, the latter had first considered some linear progress in the succession of economics schools. Stark described such a vision as “a steady progression from error to truth.” (quoted by Repapis). By considering how economic theories fit in the issues of their time, Stark’s arguments put them into a different perspective, and aimed “to interpret every single theory put forward in the past as a faithful expression and reflection of contemporary conditions.” Repapis elaborates on Stark’s critical discussion of the Mercantilists case as expounded by Keynes in The General Theory. By doing so, the article bridges ages, cultures, lingual communities, schools of thought, and disciplines in an elegant and profound way.
