===================== HES POSTING ================== Two recent resources related to this topic are: Yuval P. Yonay, The Struggle over the soul of economics: Institutionalist and Neoclassical economists in America between the wars (Princeton University Press, 1998). This book will be the subject of a panel discussion at the upcoming HES meeting in June, based on a set of reviews to be published in Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology (discussants include Samuels, Rutherford, Mirowski, Morgan, Emmett, and Barber). Mary Morgan and Malcolm Rutherford (eds.), From Interwar Pluralism to Postwar Neoclassicism (annual supplement to volume 30 of HOPE; Duke University Press, 1998). Part 2 of the collection directly touches on Steve's question, with articles by Backhouse (survey of the transformation through journal articles), Biddle (how did institutionalism fail to institutionalize itself in graduate education?) and myself (the role of general education and graduate training in the early emergence of Chicago economics).
