Most economists assume that the mathematical and quantative sides of their science are relatively recent developments. Measurement, Quantification and Economic Analysis shows that this is a misconception. Its authors argue that economists have long relied on measurement and quantification as essential tools.However, problems have arisen in adapting these tools from other fields. Ultimately, the authors are sceptical about the role which measurement and quantification tools now play in contemporary economic theory.

First Published in 1991. The undertakings within this book are testimony to the professional legacy Joan Robinson left behind. The contributors discuss her irreverence for established theory, her seemingly unquenchable zest for intellectual argument, doggedly pursued on the conviction that she was at least morally right, the sharpness of her wit, along with her occasionally unconventional mode of dress and her enjoyment of nature. This includes a biographical memoir and concludes with a bibliography of the writings of Robinson.

The Political Economy of Global Restructuring argues that the study of political economy, and the classical perspective it offers, will become increasingly relevant as we approach the 21st century. The dramatic events in Eastern Europe, the resurgence of an invigorated market capitalism and the prospect of integrated trading and financial communities are challenging the orientation towards positivism and model-building which dominates mainstream economics. Trade and Finance, the second volume of The Political Economy of Global Restructuring, focuses on the responses of the market economies of the West to structural changes in the world economy. By in depth study of such issues as disparate gains from EEC accession among member countries who give up mercantilist practices, and the prospect of new strains between financial centres and their peripheries in consequence of a European Central Bank, this volume is a decisive step in the direction of re-establishing Political Economy as a purposeful discipline.

The great tradition of classical economics is an enduring source of inspiration for new research relating to the development of economics as a discipline. This major volume brings together papers which reflect the durability as well as the diversity of classical research themes for historians of economics.Beginning with a re-evaluation of mercantilism, the volume continues with papers on stoicism in the work of Adam Smith, Smith’s use of the word ‘natural’, a game-theoretical evaluation of the Theory of Moral Sentiments and Wealth of Nations, a textual reinterpretation of Smith’s wage theories, and the important role of institutions in J.S. Mill’s economic analysis. The papers in this collection cover both Smithian classicism and the Ricardo - Marx - Sraffa classicism which is represented here by four papers on the work of Krishna Bharadwaj, a persuasive contemporary interpreter of this variant of the classical tradition.The Classical Tradition in Economic Thought demonstrates that classicism, in all its many faces, is not only alive but generating an ongoing flow of interpretative literature which will be of interest to students and scholars concerned with economic theory and the history of economic thought as well as the heterodox schools in modern economics.
