  • The Institutionalist Reaction to Keynesian Economics
    Journal of the History of Economic Thought, Volume 30, Number 1, March 2008 THE INSTITUTIONALIST REACTION TO KEYNESIAN ECONOMICS BY MALCOLM RUTHERFORD AND C. TYLER DESROCHES I. INTRODUCTION It is a common argument that one of the factors contributing to the decline of institutionalism as a movement within American economics was the arrival of Keynesian ideas and policies. In the past, this was frequently presented as a matter of Keynesian economics being ‘‘welcomed with open arms by a younger generation of American economists desperate to understand the Great Depression, an event which inherited wisdom was utterly unable to explain, and for which it was equally unable to prescribe a cure’’ (Laidler 1999, p. 211).1 As work by William Barber (1985) and David Laidler (1999) has made clear, there is something very wrong with this story. In the 1920s there was, as Laidler puts it, ‘‘a vigorous, diverse, and dis- tinctly American literature dealing with monetary economics and the business cycle,’’ a literature that had a central concern with the operation of the monetary system, gave great attention to the accelerator relationship, and contained ‘‘widespread faith in the stabilizing powers of counter-cyclical public-works expenditures’’ (Laidler 1999, pp. 211-12). Contributions by institutionalists such as Wesley C. Mitchell, J. M. Clark, and others were an important part of this literature. The experience of the Great Depression led some institutionalists to place a greater emphasis on expenditure policies. As early as 1933, Mordecai Ezekiel was estimating that about twelve million people out of the forty million previously employed in the University of Victoria and Erasmus University.

  • Efficiency Wages, Insiders and Outsiders, and the Great Depression’
    EFFICIENCY WAGES, INSIDERS AND OUTSIDERS, AND THE GREAT DEPRESSION’ Ranjit S. Dighe State University ofNew York at Oswego ABSTRACT This paper uses available quantitative and qualitative evidence from the I 930s to evaluate two prominent explanations of the wage explosion of the New Deal years of 1933—41: efficiency wages and insider-outsider models. The quantitative evidence includes various data on wage changes, hours, turn over, and strikes. Economically-based efficiency-wage models and the in sider-outsider model are found wanting as explanations of 1 930s labor mar kets. Efficiency-wage theories that emphasize worker morale fare better. This paper explains the 1930s wage burst as an interaction between New Deal policies and efforts by employers to maintain worker morale and productiv icy in a climate of growing union strength. The Great Depression, as the ultimate example of a persistent labor market disequi librium in American macroeconomic history; is inevitably seen by many as the ultimate case of sticky wages. Whatever importance one attaches to wage stickiness as a causal factor behind the mass unemployment of the 1930s, the failure ofthat unemployment to exert greater downward pressure on wages is striking. The downward rigidity ofwages in the Great Contraction of 1929—33 seems to receive the most attention from economic historians, but nearly all of the lasting increase in real wages came during the New Deal years of 1933_41.2 (See Figure.) From 1929 to June 1933, the average hourly earnings (AHE) offactory workers, measured against wholesale prices, rose just 4.5% in real product terms. (In nominal terms, they fell 23.7%, from $.590 to $.450.) From June 1933 when Congress passed the National Industrial Recovery Act (NIRA), the centerpiece of Presi dent Franklin D.

All rights reserved. 3 The Great Depression as a Historical Problem Michael A. Bernstein University of California, San Diego It is now over a half-century since the Great Depression of the 1930s, the most severe and protracted economic crisis in American his tory. To this day, there exists no general agreement about its causes, although there tends to be a consensus about its consequences. Those who at the time argued that the Depression was symptomatic of a pro found weakness in the mechanisms of capitalism were only briefly heard. After World War II, their views appeared hysterical and exag gerated, as the industrialized nations (the United States most prominent among them) sustained dramatic rates of growth and as the economics profession became increasingly preoccupied with the development of Keynesian theory and the management of the mixed economy. As a consequence, the economic slump of the inter-war period came to be viewed as a policy problem rather than as an outgrowth of fundamental tendencies in capitalist development. Within that new context, a debate persisted for a few years, but it too eventually subsided. The presump tion was that the Great Depression could never be repeated owing to the increasing sophistication of economic analysis and policy formula tion.

  • The Origins of Modern Labor Economics
    Journal of Labor Research, Volume XXIV, N° 4, Fall 2003 Ideas Versus Ideology: The Origins of Modern Labor Economics LOWELL GALLAWAY and RICHARD VEDDER Ohio University, Athens, OH 45701 Starting with its early twentieth century origins, the development of Labor Economics is traced to the present. We describe an intellectual revolution in which an earlier tra- dition that focused primarily on the institution of the labor union has been replaced by a perspective that emphasizes the various roles played by labor markets in an eco- nomic system. That earlier tradition contained very significant ideological elements, whereas its successor deals much more with the world of ideas. In the course of the debate, which still continues, ideas triumphed over ideology and created modern Labor Economics. I. Introduction When and where did Labor Economics, as it has existed during the twentieth century, come into existence? More importantly, where did the very expression "Labor Eco- nomics" originate? While there may be no precise and definitive answers to these ques- tions, it does seem clear that academic interest in the separate subject, Labor Economics, existed very early in the century. In a fascinating quasi-survey, quasi-review, article written in 1926 by Professor Paul Brissenden of Columbia University, a brief biblio- graphic history of Labor Economics textbooks is provided. Parallelling Brissenden, both in time and subject matter, are a 1926 article by Sumner Slichter and a 1927 piece by Charles E. Persons. One of the striking aspects of the bibliographic references presented by Bris- senden, Persons, and Slichter is the frequent use of the term "problem(s)" in the title of the books referenced.

Chapter 4 The Rise of the Natural-Rate of Unemployment Model 4.1 Introduction With respect to political mythology, the Northern spring of 1968 is chiefly remembered (like its forerunner of 1848) as a 'springtime' of youthful and hirsute left-revolutionary fervour. This revolutionary wave could plausibly include a US President amongst its victims, broken by the weight of office. i In contrast to all this tragedy and melodrama, with respect to influence over economic policy and all that flows from that, the most revolutionary call to arms of that time, was Milton Friedman's American Economic Association (AEA) Presidential Address. Neither youthful nor hirsute, he was an advocate of floating exchange rates, monetary targeting, low if not zero inflation, the abandonment of fine tuning, lower taxes and less regulated markets.

  • 1 CHICAGO and INSTITUTIONAL ECONOMICS1 Malcolm Rutherford
    CHICAGO AND INSTITUTIONAL ECONOMICS1 Malcolm Rutherford University of Victoria 1. Introduction For most economists the terms “Chicago economics” and “institutionalism” denote clearly antithetical approaches to the discipline. Various members of the modern “Chicago School” have made highly dismissive remarks concerning American institutionalism. Coase has commented that American institutionalists were anti-theoretical, and that “without a theory they had nothing to pass on except a mass of descriptive material waiting for a theory, or a fire” (Coase 1984, p. 230). Some of these attitudes have their roots in the interwar period, most obviously in Frank Knight’s bitingly critical attacks on the methodology and policy positions of institutionalist and advocates of the “social control” of business (Knight 1932). Nevertheless, what this presentation seeks to reveal is a much more complex interrelation between institutional and Chicago economics. To fully understand this relationship it is necessary to begin with the early years of the Chicago Department of Economics. 2. Chicago Economics and Institutionalism 1892-1919 The Chicago Department of Political Economy was begun in 1892 with Laurence Laughlin as its head. While Laughlin was extremely conservative in his economic and political views, and very much at odds with the historicist or “new” school influence in American economics, he built a department that was extremely diverse in its interests and had significant representation of those critical of “orthodox” economics (Nef 1934). Most obviously, Laughlin brought Thorstein Veblen with him from Cornell, and shortly thereafter placed him in charge of editing the Journal of Political Economy. As Hodgson has argued (Hodgson 2004), Veblen’s years at Chicago (from 1892 to 1906) were remarkably creative ones.
