Business Cycle Theory, Part I Volume 1: Selected Texts, 1860-1939
Émigré Economists in America: Their Impact and Their Experiences
I first visited the United States in September 1980 when I spent two weeks at the New School for Social Research in New York. The main reason was the first personal meeting with Adolph Lowe (1893–1995), with whom I had been in close contact since spring 1977 when I got my PhD in economics from the University of Kiel. Lowe had built up a new department for research on business cycles and international statistical economics at the Kiel Institute of…
German-Speaking Émigré Economists in Great Britain and the Analysis of the German War Economy
The need for analysis of the German war economy became urgent after the defeat of France and the threat of an invasion of Britain by Nazi Germany after the battle of Dunkirk in the summer of 1940. The expertise of émigré scholars now was in strong demand. First, this essay discusses the series of twelve articles that Hans Singer contributed at the request of Keynes to the Economic Journal from 1940 to 1944. An important characteristic of war econ…
Economic Crisis Policy
The basic principles of Ordoliberalism are rooted in economic crises, particularly the mass unemployment of the Great Depression with its devastating economic and political consequences. Governmental interventions should focus on keeping the competitive order functioning, which may imply the breaking-up of economic power groups if needed, rather than the steering of the economic process. In contrast to Keynesian macroeconomics, the government is …
Labour Market Policy
The Ordoliberal position with regard to labour market policy is ambivalent. Whereas a policy against mass unemployment is considered as unavoidable, the experience with full employment policy, in Nazi Germany in particular, strengthened the dominant view that governmental interventions such as wage and price controls imply an inherent tendency to a planned economy. Wage and price flexibility are seen as a necessary condition for a proper function…
Wassily Leontief and His German Period
Russian and Western Economic Thought: Mutual Influences and Transfer of Ideas
Louise Sommer (1889-1964)
The essay discusses life and work of Louise Sommer (1889-1964) who was one of the first women economists from Vienna, where Carl Grünberg and Karl Pribram were her major teachers. Sommer’s most outstanding contribution was her comprehensive and innovative study on Austrian cameralism which has recently attracted new interest by leading specialists in the field (Magnusson, 2021). Emphasis is therefore on a more detailed analysis of her most lastin…
The Formation of Research Institutes on Business Cycles in Europe in the Interwar Period: The “Kiel School” and (In)Voluntary Internationalization
Jacob Marschak and the Cowles approaches to the theory of money and assets
Jacob Marschak shaped the emergence of monetary theory and portfolio choice at the Cowles Commission (which he directed from 1943 to 1948, but with which he was involved already from 1937) at the University of Chicago, where he was the doctoral teacher of Leonid Hurwicz, Harry Markowitz and Don Patinkin, and then from 1955 at the Cowles Foundation at Yale University, where he was a senior colleague of James Tobin until moving to UCLA in 1960. Mar…
The Elgar Companion to John Maynard Keynes
There are three areas in which Kahn (1905–1989) made contributions which secured him a prominent place in the history of economics: imperfect competition, the theory of employment, and monetary and international economics.
On the (Im)Possibility of Socialist Calculation: Marschak Versus Mises
The Economic Thought of Friedrich List
Retrospectives: Do Productive Recessions Show the Recuperative Powers of Capitalism? Schumpeter’s Analysis of the Cleansing Effect
Schumpeter has often been interpreted as a ”liquidationist,” someone who is convinced that economic crises are necessary and unavoidable, and thus that government noninterventionism is a sound policy in such crises. The first two sections of this paper discuss Schumpeter's views in greater detail and suggest that categorizing him as a “liquidationist” is an oversimplification and as an unrepentant “noninterventionist” is incorrect. Although Schum…

Game theory modeling for the Cold War on both sides of the Iron Curtain
The bi-polar confrontation between the Soviet Union and the USA involved many leading game theorists from both sides of the Iron Curtain: Oskar Morgenstern, John von Neumann, Michael Intriligator, John Nash, Thomas Schelling and Steven Brams from the United States and Nikolay Vorob’ev, Leon A. Petrosyan, Elena B. Yanovskaya and Olga N. Bondareva from the Soviet Union. The formalization of game theory (GT) took place prior to the Cold War but the …
The German Edition of Keynes’s General Theory: Controversies on the Preface
The first foreign-language publication of The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money by John Maynard Keynes was published in German in the same year as the English original in 1936. The article discusses some quality problems of the translation, but focuses in particular on the controversies which evolved around interpretations of the Preface Keynes wrote for the German edition. Whereas a margin of doubt remains as to the responsibility…

Lutz and Equilibrium Theories of the Business Cycle
La question de l’incorporation des phénomènes cycliques dans un cadre analytique en termes d’équilibre a longtemps été considérée comme une question à la fois fondamentale et controversée jusqu’à ce que, au début des années 70, Lucas propose une solution à ce dilemme. Différents papiers ont depuis souligné la (dis-)continuité entre les programmes de recherche de l’entre-deux guerre et celui de Lucas. Dans ce débat, la contribution de Lutz a été t…

Solow's 1956 Contribution in the Context of the Harrod-Domar Model
Shortly after World War II growth theory came to occupy a central position in modern economics. Two of the most important early contributions were made by Harrod and Domar. Both aimed to extend Keynes's analysis in the General Theory into the long run by considering under what conditions a growing economy could realize full capacity utilization and full employment. Solow's neoclassical model came into existence as a reaction to the approaches by …

Capitalist development, innovations, business cycles and unemployment: Joseph Alois Schumpeter and Emil Hans Lederer
Analyses théorique, historique et statistique des cycles: Juglar et Schumpeter
Introduction Schumpeter est sans aucun doute l’économiste qui a le plus contribué à la renommée de Clément Juglar (1819-1905) dont il consacre véritablement la contribution à la théorie moderne des cycles dans son ouvrage de 1954. Il insiste tout d’abord sur l’originalité de la méthode employée mêlant à une utilisation systématique des données, une confrontation aux faits et aux théories (Schumpeter 1931, 1954). Schumpeter nuance ensuite quelque …

Die deutschsprachige Wirtschaftswissenschaft in den ersten Jahrzehnten nach 1945.: Studien zur Entwicklung der ökonomischen Theorie XXV.
Die Herrschaft des Nationalsozialismus brachte für die deutsche Wirtschaftswissenschaft einen gewaltigen Aderlaß und ein weitestgehendes Erliegen des internationalen Gedankenaustausches. Die Jahre nach Ende des Krieges und der Gewaltherrschaft waren demzufolge Jahre eines Neubeginns in mehrfacher Hinsicht, methodisch, inhaltlich und personell. Es galt, Stillstand und Zurückbleiben zu überwinden und Anschluß zu finden an die internationale Entwick…
