  • Exemplary Economists of the Twentieth Century a Review Article of 36 Economists' Autobiographies

    Exemplary Economists of the Twentieth Century a Review Article of 36 Economists' Autobiographies

    Exemplary Economists of the Twentieth Century A Review Article of 36 Economists’ Autobiographies Peter Groenewegen* Roger Backhouse and Robert Middleton, eds, Exemplary Economists, Volume 1, North America, Volume 2, Europe, Asia and Australasia, Cheltenham and Northampton, Mass., Edward Elgar Publishing, 2000, pp.xxiii+452, xxiii+441; ISBN 1 85 898 954 0, 1 85 898 960 4. Price: £65 per volume. As the editors comment in their introduction (which, incidentally, is the same in both volumes) publishing collections of the autobiographies of well-known economists is now a highly fashionable activity. Among the more recent ventures in the field they mention Szenberg (1992); Breit and Spencer (1995) dealing with Nobel Laureates; Kregel (1988, 1989) which reprints many of the autobiographies originally published in Banca nazionale del lavoro; four volumes of commissioned ‘Makers of Modern Economics’ edited by Heertje (1993, 1995, 1997, 1999); and a series of interviews with economists edited by Tribe (1997), by Snowdon and Vane (1999) and by Ibanez (1999). The 36 autobiographies included here (or, more precisely, 35 since one, chapter 18 on Ashenfelter, is an interview) have been drawn from the contributors to the Elgar series of collected papers, Economics of the Twentieth Century. As the appendix (reproduced in both volumes) indicates, not all of these contributors are included. On my count, 69 economists in all are represented in this series through their collected essays, that is, almost twice as many potential ‘exemplary economists’ as appear in these volumes. I note also that the 36 include the editors of this series for Elgar, Mark Blaug and Mark Perlman.

M. (‘Max’) Corden to Economics. We focus on three main fields: trade theory and practice, especially his pioneering work on the theory of effective protection; open economy macroeconomics, including exchange rate policy, the international monetary system, Dutch Disease, and economic crises; and Australian economic policy. We emphasize Max’s motivation for working on these topics, as he sought to understand real-world economic issues and challenges, and to employ economic theory and expositional clarity in search of policy reform. We also draw attention to his personal life history, and how it has shaped his thinking on major economic and political questions.

Summers* This is the 40th anniversary of the summer when I first met Marty Feldstein and went to work for him. I learned from working under Marty’s auspices that empirical economics was a profoundly important thing, that it had the opportunity to illuminate the world in important ways, that it had the opportunity to change people’s perspectives as they thought about economic problems, and that the successful solution or resolution of eco- nomic problems didn’t happen with the immediacy with which a doctor treated a patient, but did touch and affect the lives of hundreds of thou- sands, if not millions, of people. Lawrence H. Summers I learned about how to approach economic research from watching Marty. There is a central element that has been a part of his approach to IN THIS ISSUE economics, and it has always been a part of mine, both as an economist and a policymaker. It is the approach of many in our profession, but not all. The Martin Feldstein Lecture 1 This is the belief that we cannot aspire to know the world with complete precision; that no single parameter will measure with precision how our Research Summaries economy is going to respond to a policy or a shock. Rather, what we can The Economics of Obesity 7 aspire to establish is a combination of logic, modeling, suggestive anecdote Public Sector Retirement Plans 10 and experience, and empirical measurements from multiple different per- High-Skilled Immigration 13 spectives that lead to an overall view on economic phenomena.
