Dear All,

AISPE (The Italian Association for the History of Economic Thought) is
pleased to announce AISPE AWARDS 2023 winners


M. Alacevich, Albert O. Hirschman. An Intellectual Biography, Columbia
University Press, 2021

Michele Alacevich's volume is a well-written intellectual biography. It
offers a balanced and original analysis of Hirschman's inquiries into the
evolution of economic systems in the light of the complex and multifaceted
connections between the political, economic, and social dimensions.
Moreover, the volume thoroughly inserts Hirschman's ideas into his time's
intellectual debate, evaluating their impact on economics, policymaking
and, more generally, on social sciences during the second half of the 20th
century.


Herrade Igersheim “Rawls on the economists: The (im)possible dialogue”,
Revue économique, 2022, 6: 73, pp. 1013-1037

Igersheim’s article is a remarkable in-depth reconstruction of the dialogue
between John Rawls and economists like Arrow, Buchanan, Musgrave,
Harsanyi, Sen,
Samuelson and others. The article is built on rigorous and new archival
 work done on Rawls’ correspondences. Igersheim’s narration of this
controversy is a pleasure to read and sheds new light on crucial debates
about the concept of justice, at the crossroads of economics and philosophy.



Gianluca Damiani, William H. Riker and the adoption of Game Theory in
Political Science

Dottorato di ricerca in mutamento sociale e politico, University of
Florence-Turin

Gianluca Damiani’s PhD dissertation takes an original perspective on the
transdisciplinary journey of the concepts and the mathematical tools of
game theory from economics to political sciences in the U.S. postwar era.
Damiani’s work combines with rigor and originality a variety of sources
(including an impressive archival work) and different approaches to the
history of economics.


AISPE congratulates the winners.
