Cliometrics as Economics Imperialism: Across the Watershed: Critical Reconstructions of Political Economy, Volume 3: Studies in Critical Social Sciences, cartea 273
Autor Ben Fineen Limba Engleză Hardback – 28 noi 2023
The text draws upon case studies, for example of the putative eighteenth-century consumer revolution, Douglass North, path dependence, and the British coal industry, and through exposing the reduction of economic theory and economic history deployed within them and giving rise to a corresponding reduction in the presence of the social, the historical and political economy.
