This book chronicles the rise and especially the demise of diverse heterodox traditions in Cambridge economics. Investigating both the impact of internal pressures within the faculty as well as the force of external ideological and political trends, this meticulously researched narrative highlights the move away from oeuvre of Keynes, Sraffa, Robinson, Kaldor, Goodwin, Pasinetti, Stone and Godley. The book offers wide-ranging insights into the shift in theoretical and policy paradigms within and beyond Cambridge economics following the global dominance of neoliberalism. Using fresh archival, it narrates the untold story of the eclipse of these heterodox and post-Keynesian intellectual traditions rooted and nurtured in Cambridge, and the rise to power of mainstream economics. Also expunged in the restoration of Cambridge economics into the monodisciplinary neoclassical tradition were the structural and radical policy-oriented macro-economic modelling teams of the iconic Department of Applied Economics. The book further investigates the atrophy of sociology, development studies and economic history from faculty teaching and research portfolios. This book will be particularly relevant to students and researchers in the history of economic thought, sociology of knowledge, political economy and especially those with research and teaching interests in heterodox and post-Keynesian economics.weiterlesen
