I am still groggy from my visit to Yale. I looked all over for the monuments celebrating Jim Devine and Doug Henwood, but they were probably taken down temporarily in deference to William Buckley.
MacKenzie, Donald A. 2006. An Engine, Not a Camera (Cambridge: MIT Press) tells engaging story of how finance almost used to have much in common with institutional economics, and then became a prisoner of the sophisticated mathematical version. Regarding Masonomics, I do not think it is the exactly same as Chicago. Friedman's Chicago is a stripped-down version of Marshall, without the latter's more open observations that he relegated to footnotes, emphasizing transactions. Masonomics is more Hayekian, with a dose of Schumpeter. It concentrates on the role of the entrepreneur. Even so, both come to the same doctrinaire conclusion. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail michael at ecst.csuchico.edu michaelperelman.wordpress.com _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
