  • "Arise Ye Prisoners of Taxation”, the Work of the Imagination in the Media Writings of Economists
    "Arise ye prisoners of taxation”, the work of the imagination in the media writings of economists Tiago Mata Department of Science and Technology Studies University College London 22 Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT United Kingdom Email: [email protected] Acknowledgments: I thank Claire Lemercier for introducing me to text analysis and setting me on the course of writing this essay. Andrea Salter provided invaluable assistance in preparation of the corpus. Versions of this paper were presented to the Public Understanding of Science Seminar in London, History of Economics as History of Culture workshop at University of Paris-Cergy, and at the annual meetings of the European Society for the History of Economic Thought, I thank the participants at those events for their helpful suggestions. I am specially thankful to Harro Maas, Roger Backhouse and Beatrice Cherrier for their detailed comments and suggestions. Funding The research was funded by the European Research Council under the European Union's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7/2007-2013) for a project entitled “Economics in the Public Sphere,” grant agreement n. 283754. Abstract Since the 1960s a small number of academic economists has enjoyed celebrity status in the US media. Paul Samuelson and Milton Friedman were exemplar specimens of the kind. From 1966 to 1984 they were columnists at Newsweek. Samuelson and Friedman became newsworthy by forecasting the outcomes of competing policy programs and imagining a horizon of prosperity. Faced by the social upheavals and the stagflation of the 1970s their writing turned from prediction and advice to indictments of government failure. During the tax revolts Tiago Mata 1 of 1976-78 Friedman claimed membership to an imagined community of taxpayers reclaiming their wealth from the state.

  • Panama Canal Bibliography – American Period 1904-1999
    Panama Canal Bibliography – American Period 1904-1999 Elizabeth H. Bemis, Ph.D. March 2019 The goal of this bibliography is to work towards a comprehensive list of books published on the American period of the Panama Canal, 1904-1999. It is impossible to completely isolate the American period from the history and impact of what came before and its influence on what has come after, so some key sources that focus on other peripheral topics are also included to provide a more comprehensive picture of the material available to scholars and the interested reader. The most prominent of these closely related subjects are the Panama Canal Railroad, U.S. interest in a canal before 1904, the French canal, political situations surrounding the canal, and important figures in the Canal’s history. The core of the bibliography was built from the Panama Canal Museum Collection of the University of Florida Libraries which has afforded the inclusion of many rare and unique items. A list of critical archival and library holdings and serial publications that don’t technically fall under the parameters set above, but are important resources, are included after the end of the formal bibliography. A small list of websites that provide teaching resources can also be found after the formal bibliography. Some book chapters are included, but only those encountered during the process of looking through other sources for books; they were not sought out. The same applies to published government documents. This bibliography does not include any journal articles. 10 Year Report, the Panama Canal Commission: FY 1980 to FY 1989: A Decade of Progress in Canal Operations and Treaty Implementation.

  • The Topics of Political Economy, a 70 Year Magazine History
    The Topics of Political Economy, a 70 year magazine history Tiago Mata [email protected] Department of Science and Technology Studies, University College London Abstract [c. 200 words]: In the middle decades of the 20th century, when newsmagazines dominated North American print, Newsweek claimed the distinction of hosting the most authoritative commentary on political economy. Newsweek’s columnists were recipients of numerous journalism awards, and two of them received Nobel Prizes in Economics while writing for the magazine. These opinion columns offer a unique vantage point for the study of public economic knowledge. But, how can one read 2,9 million words covering a period of 70 years? Drawing on methods from computational linguistics, I contend that we should examine the topical structure of this corpus. By tracing the birth and death of topics we are able to identify ontological epochs, where the entities of economic life, the subjects of economic science, and the relationships between the two are remade. Word# [10k all incl.]: 9242 December 9, 2014 Work in progress. Please do not cite. The (many) figures of this paper are in colour, please consider to save on printing and to examine them on the screen. Acknowledgments: I am indebted to Claire Lemercier for urging me to consider text analysis in my study of economics in the media. The working paper we co-authored on a subset of the Newsweek corpus was an invaluable education into the statistical methods and the substance of the data. I thank Andrea Salter for research assistance on the processing of the corpus.
