In 1936 John Maynard Keynes published a book that he believed would revolutionize the way the world thinks about economic problems: The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money. Although the book became the foundation of a particular approach to economic theorizing-later termed macroeconomics, in contrast to the microeconomics of the neoclassical school, which had just begun to dominate the discipline in the early decades of the 20th century-it can be argued that Keynes never achieved what Thomas Kuhn described as a scientific revolution: a true paradigm shift.This book not only revisits the debate on the 'revolution that never was' within a philosophy of science framework-one that clearly distinguishes between paradigmatic variations and paradigmatic alternatives, thus differentiating between economic orthodoxy and heterodoxy-but also argues that the 'Keynesian revolution' of the 1940s and 1950s was merely the orthodox response to ward off a genuine paradigm shift. This was made possible by the epistemological flexibility of the orthodox tradition on the one hand and, also, by the shortcomings in Keynes's theorizing and methodological exposition. An alternative is presented that attempts to extend and supplement what Keynes called a 'Monetary Theory of Production' - offering links to modern discussions about financialisation and sustainability.The book will be of interest to all readers seeking alternatives to mainstream economics, advocating for a pluralistic approach to the discipline, and looking for a key to understanding the different strands of Post-Keynesianism.

Kuhn, Rick, Paradise on the Instalment Plan: The Economic Thought of the Australian Labour Movement between the Depression and the Long Boom. (Historical Materialism Book Series 380) 468 pp. 2026:4 (Brill, NE) <765-188>
ISBN 978-90-04-75672-4 hard ¥47,718.- (税込) EUR 180.00

Contemporary labour movement thinking about the Australian economy took shape between the depression of the 1930s and the long post-war boom, in the form of moderate and, today much diminished, left nationalist currents. Economic conditions, the level of the class struggle and the political proclivities of different classes, particularly as expressed in the working class's main organisations - the Australian Labor Party (ALP), Communist Party of Australia (CPA) and trade unions. This study focuses on labour movement understandings of three fundamental aspects of Australian capitalism: the country's place in the world; its class structure; and its experience of severe economic fluctuations.

How is it possible that economists generally fail to foresee recession, yet forecasting has never lost its appeal and importance? Using a combination of published scientific and technical literature, newspaper articles as well as archival material from thirty-three research sites in six countries, Tools of Trust looks for an answer to this question. It tells the history of business forecasting in the twentieth century, tracing the emergence and fundamental transformations of forecasting techniques and their role in economic and political decision-making. It investigates how the role of business forecasting has changed and how this has transformed economic and political decision-making. Offering a nuanced understanding of the crucial role forecasting plays in managing economic uncertainty, this book examines how unforeseen economic crises have paradoxically reinforced the importance of forecasting, turning it into an indispensable tool to reduce economic uncertainty and stabilize the capitalist order.

In this pathbreaking history, Tobias Rupprecht offers a revisionist account of Russia's post-Soviet marketisation from the perspective of the advisors and ministers who oversaw this transformation. Based on extensive interviews with economists and research in state and private archives, he uncovers a significant minority of economic liberals from late Soviet academic and dissident circles who sought to chart a new path, believing free prices and private property were the foundations of a 'civilised country'. This provides a vital challenge to the dominant narrative that neoliberal advisors and organisations imposed harmful reforms on Russia after the collapse of Communism. Liberal reformers faced a profound dilemma - one for which Western advisors had no solution either: Should they commit to democratic political activism and risk irrelevance, or align themselves with those in power and be co-opted by an authoritarian state determined to re-assert its imperial strength?

This book argues for a comprehensive reframing of Friedrich Hayek, one of the most influential economic and social thinkers of the twentieth century. Its focus is on the role of legal philosophy and legislation in understanding Hayek's views on social and economic planning, and in particular his critique of socialism. The book examines Hayek's later works on the shortcomings of legislation as the primary political tool used by governments to coerce otherwise free economic activity. It argues that Hayek's view of social and especially legal rules equates to a reformulation of his critique of planned economies, which has so far been understood in purely economic terms. The book argues that Hayek should be considered an important scholar in the realm of complexity theory, showing that his writing on intertwined legal and economic systems paved the way for a greater understanding of how individual agents and the 'spontaneous order' of the economy is inevitably regulated by the rational social order brought about by moral and legal rules and institutions. The book itself seeks to break the tradition of studying Hayek's work from isolated legal or economic lenses. This will be a valuable resource for scholars across the social sciences, including within economics, political science, law, complexity theory, and philosophy.

In an era of increasingly complex financial ecosystems, this book explores the evolving relationship between market mechanisms and human behavior. Bridging the gap between economics and the natural sciences, it presents a dynamic framework that uses analogies from physics, chemistry, and evolutionary biology to illuminate the connections between psychological, social, and financial principles. The book discusses foundational and contemporary models, such as Keynesian and Hayekian thought, the Keynes-Ramsey rule, the Blinder-Solow model, Bellman's principle of optimality, dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) frameworks, and replicator dynamics. Topics covered include disequilibrium, stochastic processes, ergodicity, hysteresis, and chaos theory. Additionally, the book examines the strategic dimensions of monetary and fiscal policy through the lenses of optimal control and game theory. Designed for economists, financial theorists, and interdisciplinary scholars, this book provides theoretical depth and practical insight into the global interdependencies of markets, policy, and trade. It is an essential resource for understanding the dynamic forces shaping modern financial systems.

Exploring the interdependence of capital accumulation with imperialist tendencies and nationalism, this book investigates the workings of contemporary capitalism.By systematically addressing nationalism and the imperialist tendencies inherent in capitalist social formations - to expand economically, politically and ideologically beyond their state territory - the book poses questions such as Does nationalism fuel imperialism? Or, in the case of less developed countries, is it an obstacle to the imperialist policies of the big powers and international capital? Does nationalism necessarily encourage irredentism and ethnic cleansing? Is the nation an outcome of the historical era of capitalism as a system of class domination and exploitation? Conversely, can nationalism ever be a vehicle for the social liberation of the working classes in the era of 'globalisation' and 'financialisation'? In addressing these questions the book highlights class relations of domination and exploitation, the contradictions of their expanded reproduction, the increasing role of finance, and the economic and geopolitical imbalances and conflicts that characterise current international relations.The book will be of great interest to readers in the social sciences across economic history, history of economic thought, political economy, Marxist theory, political science, state theory, international economics and development studies.

This book commemorates a pivotal moment in economic thought-the 50th anniversary of Alfred Eicher and Jan Kregel's groundbreaking 1975 article in the Journal of Economic Literature that boldly announced a "new paradigm in economics" and marked the first journal publication to carry the post-Keynesian label. What began as an academic declaration has evolved into a influential school of economic thought that continues to shape policy debates and theoretical frameworks worldwide.However, the story of post-Keynesian economics extends far beyond its Anglo-American origins. While existing scholarship has predominantly focused on developments in the United States and England, this comprehensive volume breaks new ground by exploring how post-Keynesian ideas emerged, adapted, and flourished across diverse global contexts. From European innovations to developments in emerging economies, this collection reveals the rich, untold history of how post-Keynesian thought took root in different intellectual and institutional environments around the world.This book will be beneficial for graduate students, economists and scholars interested in heterodox economic thought and the history of economic ideas. Policy makers and practitioners interested in alternative economic frameworks will also find valuable insights into how post-Keynesian ideas have been implemented and adapted across different national contexts.The chapters in this book were published in Review of Political Economy.

From John Maynard Keynes's foremost biographer, an illuminating look at how the economist's ethical approach can be used to address today's pressing problems John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946) was arguably the most important economist of the twentieth century; his ideas have fundamentally altered the way governments approach economic policy. Exploring the enduring relevance of his ideas, Robert Skidelsky emphasizes Keynes's conception of economics as a moral science. Keynes was deeply invested in the broader societal implications of economic policies, and this book highlights his belief in economics as a tool for achieving the good life. Skidelsky sheds new light on Keynes's views on capitalism, discusses his advocacy of low interest rates, and delves into his thoughts on economic instability. He also offers fresh insight into Keynes's ideas about money, his philosophical foundations, and his unique approach to uncertainty and probability. Ultimately, Skidelsky shows how Keynes's vision of an economic policy that prioritizes the common good can be adapted to help solve our current economic and political challenges.

This book examines the medieval debate on the role of money and credit in the Islamic and Western Christian worlds.Starting from Aristotle's vision of the ethical and egalitarian use of wealth, fundamental to both Islamic and Christian thinkers, it highlights how the two visions of money and credit share a strong ethical-religious foundation.However, thinking on monetary and credit matters in the Western Christian and Islamic worlds has developed differently, partly due to the different evolution of the two economic systems. In Islamic economic thought, particular attention has been paid to the prohibition of paying interest on loans, the main basis for which lies in the Qur'an and the Sunnah. This has had interesting repercussions both on the development of the socio-economic system and on theoretical thinking. In the Western Christian world, too, this prohibition was based on ethical and religious grounds. Taking an Aristotelian perspective, the writings of the Thomists and the Franciscan and Augustinian schools reiterated the need for an ethical assessment of credit and interest. This resulted in a significant contribution to the process of secularisation of economic science and valuable theoretical support for important institutional developments.This book will be of great interest to readers of Islamic and Christian ethics, the history of money and, more generally, the history of economic thought.

≫The Other Economist. Max Weber's Late Work and the Fiscal Constitution of a New German Democracy≪: In the midst of the Great War, Max Weber began to campaign vigorously for the centralization of parliamentary control over state finances. His profound knowledge of ≫political≪ economics and fiscal sociology served him well in this endeavor. In 1918/19, he condemned both, new forms of exploitation and old wealth, socialist revolutionaries and the reactionary feudal powers, advocating instead for a tax-based republic. His activism shaped all of his late writings, as this reinterpretation shows.

Most contemporary economists understand markets as purely price-making systems, ignoring the role of markets as relational systems that frame our way of life and determine the kind of society we live in.This book weaves both of these elements together to present a history of markets which accepts the interplay between price system and relational system and between mechanism and purpose. The book recounts the evolution of the narratives adopted by political economists to describe the workings of the market and how the market may serve to create and maintain relationships that foster cooperation and trust and improve welfare. Such a story of the market follows the debate among political economists, revealing a sense of mission to press the potential of markets into service to solve poverty and promote human welfare. Naturally, their ideas, dreams and ambitions changed with changing circumstances and understanding. Thomas Aquinas, Adam Smith and John Stuart Mill all had something different in mind when writing about the market. The book therefore presents different episodes in the history of political economists' market, extending from the heyday of control (by religious, communal and feudal authorities in the Middle Ages) to the heyday of liberty during the mid-nineteenth century (laissez-faire). This history of political economists advancing their ideas about the place of markets in human life offers a much-needed complement to the more common one-sided representation of markets.This book will be essential reading for historians of economic thought and political economy who are interested in the evolution of ideas on the role of markets.

This book offers an in-depth exploration of the genesis of Leon Walras's work and its impact on the history of economics. Through a thorough examination of both published and unpublished writings, correspondence, and personal notes, the book reveals new insights into Walras's intellectual evolution and his overall conception of economics. It traces the formation of his theoretical framework, the elements of his "political and social economy," and his aspirations for a "liberal and humanitarian scientific socialism." The book is organized into five parts: Part I investigates the influences shaping Walras's thought, including his relationship with his father, Auguste Walras, and the intellectual legacy of Jean-Baptiste Say. This section also discusses Walras's views on the stages of historical development, reflecting on the industrial and commercial transformations of his time and his framework for categorizing the social and political sciences.Part II examines the development of Walras's general equilibrium theory, the role of free competition within a "pure economy," and the reception of his ideas in Italy and France. It highlights the historical and intellectual context surrounding his theoretical innovations.Part III addresses Walras's approach to the teaching of economics, with a focus on avoiding intellectual rigidity, particularly in France. It explores his work in social and applied economics at Lausanne and his efforts to shape academic resources, such as library acquisitions, to support this vision.Part IV critiques French liberalism, analyzing Walras's responses to figures like Louis Blanc and the Saint-Simonians, and discusses his editorial work with Le Travail, which advocated cooperative approaches.Part V highlights Walras's reformist ideas, including his vision for labor market organization, the state's role in land repurchase to replace taxes, the regulation of public services and natural monopolies, and his ideas on democracy, particularly his campaign for professional representation of interests. This comprehensive analysis appeals to scholars and students of the history of economic thought and anyone interested in understanding the formation and legacy of Walras's work.

John Maynard Keynes's General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money revolutionized economics. But it can be dense and cryptic, an intimidating work for the uninitiated. This companion volume approaches the argument methodically and with clarity, explaining obscure terms and breaking down Keynes's ideas and their significance for his time and ours. Award-winning economist and author Geoff Mann allows readers to comprehend why the word "Keynesian" has become so contentious today - and so important.

This book offers a survey of ideas and practices of economic liberalism beyond Western Europe and North America. It traces the intellectual development and political agency of pro-market economists in Eastern Europe, East Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, and West Africa, from the 1970s onwards.Drawing on original primary-source research from five continents, the contributors to this volume - both internationally recognised senior scholars and emerging historians and social scientists - bring deep regional and linguistic expertise to their analyses. Each chapter critically examines the transformation of planned and state-centric economies into deregulated market systems, exploring these transitions from the perspective of the economists who drove the reforms. By challenging Western-centric narratives of neoliberal policy advice, this book offers fresh insights into the chronology, circulation of ideas, and power dynamics that shaped one of the late twentieth century's major transformations.Offering a new approach to the study of liberal ideas outside the West, the book will be of interest to not only academics cutting across disciplinary boundaries, including historians of (the marketisation of) state socialism, but also area specialists on Asia, Eastern Europe, and the Global South.

産業開発と分業－分析の歴史
Sai-wing Ho, P., Industrial Development and Division of Labour: A History of Analysis. 300 pp. 2026:4 (Cambridge U. Pr., UK) <757-277>
ISBN 978-1-108-48267-7 hard ¥40,183.- (税込) GB￡ 130.00

A country's industrial policy aims at promoting the development of sectors that often relate to manufacturing and is especially important for less-developed countries as they seek to catch up economically. Industrial Development and Division of Labor re-examines the long history behind the debate on its formulation and organises the discussion around the two types of division of labour found in Adam Smith's Wealth of Nations. One type has evolved to become the neoclassical perspective and its notion of market failure that has heavily skewed the debate's history. Noting its limitations, including the simplified catch-up learning that is conceived, this book illustrates that arguments for industrial policy that are rejected by Neoclassical economists - so-called 'protectionist' and import-substituting ones - and newer notions involving innovation systems actually share roots with Smith's other type of labour division. They offer broader perspectives on policy that call for establishing elaborate interactive contexts for learning for development.

資本主義経済における倫理
Miller, Robert, Ethics in a Capitalist Economy: Why Markets Need Virtues. 264 pp. 2025:12 (Bloomsbury Academic, UK) <757-145>

In a novel application of the work of neo-Aristotelian virtue ethics to the philosophy of business, Robert CB Miller argues that free-market capitalism requires virtues to mitigate its flaws and to enhance its strengths. Ethics in a Capitalist Economy begins with an outline of modern virtue ethics, deriving from Aristotle and Aquinas and reinvigorated in the 20th century by writers including Elizabeth Anscombe and Philippa Foot. Taking up the idea that human nature determines the virtues, Miller sets out three types of virtue specific to economic activity: contractual, behavioural and entrepreneurial. With reference to major historical and contemporary thinkers including Adam Smith, John Locke, David Hume, Alasdair MacIntyre, Mary Midgeley and Steven Pinker, the book shows the flaws in the market economy and the ways in which these flaws can be mitigated by the application of particular virtues in order to encourage human flourishing. The book includes three case studies investigating the practice (or absence) of virtues in real world situations: on the career of Warren Buffett, on insights from behavioural economics and on the philanthropic efforts of business leaders. This book combines practical considerations with a detailed and accessible reading of the theory of virtue ethics and its relation to human nature in political economy.

This edited volume discusses the reception and application of Keynesian economics in Europe during the 20th century. The main focus of the book is the case of West Germany, where the strong position of Keynesian economics (primarily of the neoclassical synthesis type) at most universities since the 1950s contrasted with Ordoliberalism and the concept of the Social Market Economy, which became dominant German economic policy after the war. Chapter contributions focus on important pioneers of theoretical or political Keynesianism, such as Erich Schneider, Andreas Paulsen, and Karl Schiller in Germany, Kurt Rothschild in Austria, Gottfried Bombach in Switzerland; the influence of Keynes on other economists; and the relevance of Keynesian ideas in Austria and Norway. Providing a survey of important theoretical economists in post-war Germany, this volume will be of interest to researchers and students of economic policy, contemporary political, social and economic systems, history of economic thought and political history.

消費者社会と経済学者－経済思想史における消費とウェルビーイング
Collantes, Fernando, Consumer Society and the Economists: Consumption and Well-Being in the History of Economic Thought. (Palgrave Studies in the History of Economic Thought) 229 pp. 2025:10 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <756-102>
ISBN 978-3-031-96644-6 hard ¥31,808.- (税込) EUR 119.99

Is consumer society a vehicle for progress? Or is it a detour leading us away from the path to the good life? To what extent is consumer society a relevant object of analysis, after all? Today, these questions are central to the debate on the dynamics of capitalism and their impact on human well-being. Yet they are by no means exclusive to our time. This book traces the history of economic thought on consumer society from the late eighteenth century to the present day. It explores the ambivalence of classical political economists and Marx towards the world of consumption. It narrates the making of an intellectual battlefield between rival views of consumer society during the period 1870-1945 and the head-on clash that took place between those views during the decades after the Second World War. How these debates reemerged following the end of the Cold War and the Global Financial Crisis is also covered. This is the story of how economists debated consumer society and how that debate was shaped by another fundamental discussion: how economists should conduct their research and what kind of relationships they should maintain with other social sciences and the humanities. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the history of economic thought and political economy.

労働手段による商品の生産－価値法則の復活
Helmedag, Fritz, Production of Commodities by Means of Labour: Rehabilitation of the Law of Value. (Springer Studies in Alternative Economics) 380 pp. 2025:11 (Springer, GW) <756-103>
ISBN 978-3-032-01456-6 hard ¥23,855.- (税込) EUR 89.99

This book revitalises the labour theory of value as a framework for determining production prices and explores its implications for economic theory and policy. Through an in-depth review of economists such as Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Karl Marx, and Piero Sraffa, it uncovers that the profit distribution in proportion to material costs generally prevents the division of labour between separate industries. Instead, it reveals that profit sharing in relation to the labour input - the original productive power - is the only consistent method to establish an equilibrium under conditions of 'free' competition. In addition, profit maximisation in the vertically integrated wage sector, which satisfies demand financed out of wages, leads to a 100?% rate of profit (or rate of exploitation). The associated real unit labour costs amount to 50?%. The remnant 'luxury' department must adapt to this level. Empirical evidence confirms this finding. The author demonstrates that economic theory grounded upon the law of value can offer welfare-enhancing policies. This book will intrigue scholars and students of economics, as well as anyone interested in economic theory and the history of economic thought.

18世紀イギリスにおける経済の道徳的ディスコース
Yoon, Hye-Joon, Moral Discourses of the Economy in Eighteenth-Century Britain. 272 pp. 2025:11 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <756-104>
ISBN 978-981-9509-57-7 hard ¥31,808.- (税込) EUR 119.99

This book presents a comprehensive picture of eighteenth-century British authors' engagement with a society increasingly driven by commercial interests. The books and pamphlets constituting the "discourses" on economic topics overstep the boundaries separating the domains of economics, religion (William Warburton, John Wesley), law (William Blackstone, Lord Mansfield), history (William Robertson, Edward Gibbon), physiology (Richard Morton, Goerge Cheyne) and politics (Edmund Burke, the Abolitionists). An impartial and inclusive history of the "discourses" is what the book purports to construct. The luminaries of the British (and Scottish) Enlightenment (Adam Smith, David Hume), are given due respects, but a great number of less well-known and even anonymous authors also feature in the book. Giving as much scope as possible to the sources themselves, the book pays attention to both the rhetorical and the thematic layers of the quotations, while keeping generalization and theorizations to the minimum. The "eighteenth-century" in the title begins in the 1680s, when some of the important authors such as Nicholas Barbon published their thoughts, and ends in the 1790s, with the contrastive pair of Edmund Burke and Jeremy Bentham.

The Frankfurt Institute continues to command the interest of a wide range of scholars working in history, philosophy, sociology, and political science. Yet, the prevailing narrative about the Institute overlooks a crucial component of its history: the economic theories developed by its lesser-known members. This book presents the first comprehensive study of these overlooked contributions, providing a transformative account that repositions the Institute as a site of original and influential economic thought. Most research on the Frankfurt Institute remains narrowly focused on a select few members whose work developed methods of critiquing capitalism that were more philosophically oriented than empirically grounded in economic reality.Drawing on new archival research, this book brings to the forefront the sidelined and long-neglected economic ideas of Franz L. Neumann, Otto Kirchheimer, Friedrich Pollock, Carl Gruenberg, Henryk Grossmann, Arkadij Gurland, Gerhard Meyer, Kurt Mandelbaum, and Karl A. Wittfogel. Viewing the work of the Institute through these figures highlights the fact that material, historical, and empirical approaches to economic theory were central to its work. Being primarily a work of intellectual history, the book contextualises the Institute's economic theories within the historical settings of the Weimar Republic and Nazi Germany.The book emphasises the role of these underappreciated economists in shaping economic discourse around the structural characteristics of capitalist economies during the twentieth century and offers a renewed perspective on the intricate interplay between economics, politics, history, and epistemology, which lay at the heart of the Institute's endeavours. This book will be of interest to researchers on twentieth-century economic history, intellectual history, political philosophy, history of economic thought, epistemology, and critical theory.

現代の包括的経済科学－M.パンタレオーニの経済思想と遺産

Covering Maffeo Pantaleoni's key areas of contribution to economics, this book provides a comprehensive study of one of the foremost economic thinkers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Called the 'prince' of Italian economists by Piero Sraffa, among others, Maffeo Pantaleoni (1857-1924) was an original and innovative thinker but also bizarre and extravagant. As a result he did not produce an inherently continuous and systematic work, but his contributions oscillate between a shifting idealism and heterogeneous operational criteria. Contrasting with the specialisation which pervades the economic sciences today, rereading Pantaleoni one hundred years after his death, it is clear that he excelled in 'pure' as much as in 'applied' economics, in public economics as in statistical or historical-economic studies. Overall, his expertise spanned fields of economics that are now considered disaggregated and distant from each other. Thus, the Pantaleonian spirit, which was innovative and completist and could not be confined within any enclosure, was lost a century ago. This volume brings together a group of specialists capable of identifying the many points of contact between Pantaleoni's multiform thought and the disciplinary plurality of his economics - thus providing 'A Complete Economic Science' of which Pantaleoni would be proud.The book will be of interest to economists, readers in history of economic thought, intellectual history, Italian history more broadly, and scholars with diverse profiles of interest.

On his deathbed, Adam Smith ordered the burning of two unfinished works on epistemology and politics, fearing that his image as a philosopher would be tarnished and his ideas misinterpreted. This book argues that the inability to complete these two works is symptomatic of tensions for which Smith found no resolution.The loss of Smith's final manuscripts led to a century and a half of deliberate neglect from philosophers and misinterpretation from economists. The book reconstructs the lost works from fragments, lecture notes, correspondence, and chapters from published works. It also examines the reasons for changes in various editions of the Theory of Moral Sentiments, and explores the hybrid argumentative strategy employed in the Wealth of Nations. The output serves as a map of a coherent system addressing the same questions as Kant and venturing onto the path later taken by the pragmatists. This roadmap will guide twenty-first-century readers through Smith's work.The book is essential reading for Adam Smith specialists, historians of economic thought and philosophers of science.

A.スミスと東インド会社
Donoghue, Mark, Adam Smith and the East India Company. (Routledge Studies in the History of Economics) 256 pp. 2025:12 (Routledge, UK) <755-16>

This book examines Adam Smith's perspectives on the India question during a pivotal juncture when the East India Company evolved from a commercial enterprise into a de facto imperial authority in India. Smith astutely recognised the significance of this transition and anticipated its potential to unleash societal change. Yet despite the importance of his observations in The Wealth of Nations, Smith's treatment of the East India Company's operations and governance in India has received limited scholarly attention. This study addresses that oversight by arguing that Smith's reflections on India constitute an essential dimension of his political economy.Situating Smith within broader eighteenth-century debates on trade, colonial policy, and the moral legitimacy of empire, this study reinterprets his position on the East India Company's monopoly, the integration of Indo-European commerce, and the consequences of territorial acquisition in India. Challenging prevailing historiographical interpretations, it offers a new reading of Smith's views on the transfer of Indian territories to the British Crown. Although Smith neither visited India nor engaged directly in colonial administration or trade, his sustained interest in Indian affairs profoundly shaped his thinking on governance, commerce, and imperial reform. The book highlights Smith's recognition of India's wealth, his awareness of the strategic importance of the East Indies trade, and his call for institutional reforms to reconcile the East India Company's interests with Britain's evolving imperial responsibilities. In doing so, it dispels the assumption that Smith's theories were detached from the economic and political realities of empire and instead positions him as a key figure in the intellectual history of imperial thought. Bridging the fields of economic thought, imperial history, and Indian historiography, this book offers a fresh perspective on Smith's enduring relevance.At a time when questions about global trade, corporate power, and the legacies of empire remain deeply contested, Adam Smith and the East India Company revisits the early economic, political, and diplomatic entanglements between Britain and India, revealing how historical ties continue to shape the present. These insights are especially timely today, as the United Kingdom and India have recently concluded a new free trade agreement aimed at enhancing mutual market access-including in Indian textiles and gems, commodities once central to eighteenth-century trade flows and formative in shaping empire and global commerce. History reminds us that such exchanges are seldom without precedent. Economic exchange in the age of Smith laid the foundations for enduring commercial relationships and illustrates how contemporary agreements often reflect historical patterns forged in the crucible of early globalisation.This study will appeal to scholars and advanced research students in the history of economic thought, Indian economic history, business history, imperial studies, and eighteenth-century intellectual history.

Callahan, Gene (ed.), The Concept of Work in the History of European Philosophy: By the Sweat of Your Brow. (Palgrave Studies in Classical Liberalism) 304 pp. 2025:10 (Palgrave Macmillan, UK) <754-23>

This volume offers a historical overview of philosophical thinking about work in a Western context. While philosophy has for a long time been interested in the liberative aspects of politics, including justice, liberty or equality, and there are also major philosophical works on the culture of play, the topic of work seems to have escaped philosophy's primary focus. This is surprising as since the middle of the 19th century the world of work has been at the centre of political struggle and social conflict. This collection of essays on how major European thinkers have conceptualised work aims to fill this gap and provides the first concise, yet substantial history of philosophical ideas about work. The Concept of Work in the History of European Philosophy is essential reading for all scholars, researchers and advanced students of the history of philosophy. It is also ideal for scholars in related fields such as organisational theory and the history of economic thought.

Hegel's political philosophy has long been associated with some form of social or welfare liberalism. Questioning this interpretation, Bernardo Ferro shows that Hegel's work harbours a more ambitious philosophical project, which points to a di?erent vision of modern society. Ferro claims that Hegel's account of the state should be read not as a complement to his characterization of civil society, but as a direct challenge to its underlying logic. He then draws the political and economic conclusions implicit in this line of approach, arguing that the conscious pursuit of the common good Hegel regards as essential to a rational state is not compatible with either a capitalist production system or a constitutional monarchy: a true dialectical synthesis of the particular interests of individuals and the general interests of society entails nothing less than a comprehensive democratization of the economic and the political spheres, and the need for this transformation holds the key to Hegel's enduring political relevance.

This book examines the academic life of Oskar Lange and his contribution to economics. It charts the development of his ideas across his working life and reflects on how the events of this period shaped his view of economics. His early engagement with European Marxism during the 1920s is outlined, as well as the ways that the 1929 economic crash encouraged Lange to evaluate the social dimension of economics and consider the economic underpinnings of a socialist planned economy. Lange's engagement with debates surrounding the theory of production, capital, the theory of interest, welfare economics, and general equilibrium during the 1930s and 1940s are outlined and provide insight into how Lange viewed the key economic debates of the day. The legacy of Lange, not just within socialist economics, but within the discipline more generally, is discussed to reflect upon his place within the Marxist tradition and his relevance within modern economics. This book offers unique insight into the work and legacy of Oskar Lange. It will be of interest to students and researchers working within the history of economic thought and the political economy.

Dazai Shundai (1680-1747) is a critical figure in Japanese political thought, who developed his philosophy in response to a perceived crisis in the status of the ruling samurai class, of which he was a member. This volume introduces sections from his most significant work of political thought, Keizairoku (1729), and its addendum Keizairoku shui (1744). Extracts present Shundai's program of political and economic reform, as he grappled with the upheavals and opportunities accompanying the breakdown of feudal agrarianism and the emergence of a modern commercial economy. While Shundai accepted the inevitability of this economic transition, his vision of political economy remained conservative, with a focus on strengthening samurai-class supremacy. Peter Flueckiger offers a critical introduction to Shundai's ideas, exploring the nuances of his engagement with Confucian thought, and extensive annotations provide further textual and historical context. This volume thus demonstrates how Shundai's writings prefaced increasingly ambitious theories of state-managed economic growth in early modern and modern Japan.

This book presents a critical history of Yugoslav socialist economics, from its inception in the late 1940s to its dissolution in the late 1980s. After the dramatic break with the Soviet Union in 1948, Yugoslavia found itself in urgent need of a third way: A socialist trajectory which would not resemble the Soviet model nor succumb to the imperatives of capitalist modernization. This monumental historical task resulted in the gradual constitution of the system of socialist self-management.This book is the first to provide a systematic response to key questions about this specifically Yugoslav form of socialist economics: How did it develop? How was it consolidated into a productive and influential academic discipline? What were the theoretical concerns and empirical procedures used by economists in order to create a modern scientific discipline and advance the cause of socialist Yugoslavia? And finally, how did this body of work enter a terminal crisis and disappear simultaneously with the country itself? Even given its failure, socialist Yugoslavia constitutes one of the more important and sustained twentieth-century attempts at building socialism. Thus, the Yugoslav way of thinking remains relevant for contemporary topics such as economic democracy, comparative economic systems and post-capitalist economic models.This book will appeal to all readers interested in the history of economics, economic sociology, political economy, the history of Yugoslavia and socialist debates.

From its beginnings, Polish economic thought has had a strong national character resulting from specific socio-political and economic realities.Drawing on the broader historical context, this book presents the main stages and contributions in the development of Polish economic thought from the medieval period to modern times. Focusing on economists and economic schools active within Poland, the book presents the development of Polish economic thought in the context of Polish history, economic history, sociocultural conditions, and the history of economics. The book features prominent figures such as Oskar Lange, Michal Kalecki, and Rosa Luxemburg, but the emphasis is on broader trends and developments across key periods. From the 16th century until the loss of independence in 1795, discussion on economic activity was part of a broader analysis of social relations. During the years of the partitions, the paramount issue for all Polish economists was regaining independence, which gave rise to the idea of Polish national economics. Independence in 1918 was a fundamental impulse for the development of theoretical research, led by the achievements of Lange and Kalecki. After World War II, the political and economic changes again influenced the development of Polish economics, being forced to consider the realities of a non-market economy.

This book explores the role of American economists in Greece between 1947 and 1962. With a focus on economic thought and political relations, it examines the Greek economy following the Second World War and highlights the economic ideas and policies that brought Greece out of an economic depression. Collaboration between Greek, American, and British policymakers, economists, politicians, and administrators in providing humanitarian relief, economic rehabilitation and monetary order is highlighted. By examining the specific economic policies and how they were articulated, a nuanced view of policy making is presented that provides insight into policies that were shaped by both New Deal idealism and post-war realism. This book offers unique insights into the post-war reconstruction of Greece and the exchange of ideas between American and Greek economists. It will be of interest to students and researchers working within economic policy issues, international political economy and the history of economic thought.
