Tracing the evolution of economic ideas in the context of the economic history and economic policy issues in Greece, this book examines the history of modern Greek economic thought from the War of Independence from Ottoman rule in 1821 until the present.

The book explores how native, religious-oriented economic thought was secularized and merged with different economic discourses during successive historical periods. It traces how the dissemination of French and German economic thought in the 19th century was followed by British and US influences in the 20th century. The institutionalization of economics as a discipline in the 1920s and its internationalization after 1971, with their effects on the emergence of modern mainstream and heterodox thought, are also discussed. Finally, reference is made to contemporary Greek economic thought in the frame of European Union economic thinking.

This book will be of interest to readers in the history of economic thought, economic history, intellectual history, Greek history, and modern European history more broadly.

The financial crisis of 2008 has revived interest in economic scholarship from a historical perspective. The most in depth studies of the relationship between economics and history can be found in the work of the so-called German Historical School (GHS). The influence of the GHS in the USA and Britain has been well documented, but far less has been written on the rest of Europe.

This volume studies the interconnection between economic thought and economic policy from the mid-nineteenth century to the interwar period. It examines how the School’s ideas spread and was interpreted in different European countries between 1850 and 1930, analysing its legacies in these countries. In doing so, the book is able to trace the interconnection between economic thought and economic policy, adding new voices to the debate on the diffusion of ideas and flow of knowledge. This book identifies issues related to topics such as nationalism and cosmopolitanism in the history of ideas and clarifies themes in policy making that are still currently debated. These include monetary policy and benefits of free trade for all parties involved in international exchanges.

This book will be of a great interest to those who study history of economic thought, economic theory and political 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.
