Beveridge, Queens and Graduate Center CUNY and Social Explorer, Inc. Lynn Caporale, Strategic Scientific Advisor and Author The following slides were presented at the recent meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. This project and paper is an outgrowth of that session, and will combine qualitative data on Nobel Prize Winners family histories along with analyses of the pattern of Nobel Winners. The first set of slides show some of the patterns so far found, and will be augmented for the formal paper. The second set of slides shows some examples of the Nobel families. The authors a developing a systematic data base of Nobel Winners (mainly US), their careers and their family histories. This turned out to be much more challenging than expected, since many winners do not emphasize their family origins in their own biographies or autobiographies or other commentary. Dr. Caporale has reached out to some laureates or their families to elicit that information. We plan to systematically compare the laureates to the population in the US at large, including immigrants and non‐immigrants at various periods.

Davis Marquette University, [email protected] Accepted version. History of Economic Ideas, Vol. 24, No. 3 (2016): 77-94. DOI. © 2016 Fabrizio Serra Editore. Used with permission. Forthcoming in History of Economic Ideas Economics imperialism versus multidisciplinarity John B. Davis, Marquette University and University of Amsterdam 2015 STOREP Conference Plenary Lecture Shifting Boundaries: Economics in the Crisis and the Challenge of Interdisciplinarity June 11-13, 2015 Abstract: This paper examines the implications of Chicago School economist Edward Lazear’s 2000 defense of economics imperialism using standard trade theory. It associates that defense with interdisciplinarity or the idea that the sciences are relatively autonomous, but treats this defense as a mask for a more conventional imperialist strategy of promoting Chicago School neoclassicism. Lazear’s argument actually created a dilemma for Chicago regarding how it could espouse interdisciplinarity while operating in a contrary way. I argue that the solution to this dilemma was for neoclassicism to rebuild economics imperialism around neoclassicism as a theory that sees the world in its own image in a performative manner. This strategy, however, suffers from a number of problems, which upon examination ultimately lead us to multidisciplinarity or the idea that the sciences can have transformative effects on one another. This latter conception can be associated with a complexity economics approach as an alternative view of the relation between the sciences. The paper argues that this view provides a basis for pluralism in economics.

  • Curriculum Vitae Prof. Dr. Adolf Otto Reinhold Windaus
    Curriculum Vitae Prof. Dr. Adolf Otto Reinhold Windaus Name: Adolf Otto Reinhold Windaus Lebensdaten: 25. Dezember 1876 - 9. Juni 1956 Adolf Windaus war ein deutscher Chemiker. Er untersuchte Naturstoffe, vor allem die biochemisch wichtigen Sterine und ihren Zusammenhang mit anderen Naturstoffen. Er entdeckte die chemische Verwandtschaft von Cholesterin und Gallensäure. Außerdem lieferte er Arbeiten über Vitamine, vor allem das Vitamin D. Zwischen 1927 und 1931 gelang ihm die Isolierung mehrerer D-Vitamine. Seine Forschungen bildeten die Grundlage für später von seinen Schülern durchgeführten Arbeiten über die menschlichen Sexualhormone. Für seine Verdienste um die Erforschung des Aufbaus der Sterine und ihres Zusammenhangs mit den Vitaminen wurde Adolf Windaus 1928 mit dem Nobelpreis für Chemie ausgezeichnet. Akademischer und beruflicher Werdegang Adolf Windaus begann 1895 ein Studium der Medizin an der Universität Freiburg. Er wechselte nach Berlin, wo er 1897 das Physikum bestand. 1899 wurde er in Freiburg mit einer Arbeit über Neue Beiträge zur Kenntnis der Digitalisstoffe promoviert wurde. 1901 war er zunächst in Berlin als Assistent von Emil Fischer (Nobelpreis für Chemie 1902) tätig. Während dieser Zeit wandte er sich zunehmend chemischen Fragestellungen zu. Außerdem begann er mit seinen Forschungen zu den Sterinen. 1903 habilitierte er sich in Freiburg mit einer Arbeit über Cholesterin. 1906 erhielt er eine außerordentliche Professur an der Universität Göttingen. Im Anschluss wechselte er für zwei Jahre an die Universität Innsbruck, wo er eine außerordentliche Professur für angewandte medizinische Chemie erhielt. 1915 ging er zurück nach Göttingen, wo er als Nachfolger von Otto Wallach (Nobelpreis für Chemie 1910) Ordinarius für Chemie wurde. Dort blieb er bis zu seiner Emeritierung im Jahr 1944.

  • James D. Watson Molecular Biologist, Nobel Laureate ( 1928 – )
    James D. Watson Molecular biologist, Nobel Laureate ( 1928 – ) Watson is a molecular biologist, best known as one of the co-discoverers of the struc- ture of DNA. Watson, Francis Crick, and Maurice Wilkins were awarded the 1962 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Watson was born in Chicago, and early on showed his brilliance, appearing on Quiz Kids, a popular radio show that challenged precocious youngsters to answer ques- tions. Thanks to the liberal policy of University of Chicago president ROBERT HUTCHINS, Watson was able to enroll there at the age of 15, earning a B.S. in Zoology in 1947. He was attracted to the work of Salvador Luria, who eventually shared a Nobel Prize with Max Delbrück for their work on the nature of genetic mutations. In 1948, Watson began research in Luria’s laboratory and he received his Ph.D. in Zoology at Indiana University in 1950 at age 22. In 1951, the chemist Linus Pauling published his model of the protein alpha helix, find- ings that grew out of Pauling’s relentless efforts in X-ray crystallography and molecu- lar model building. Watson now wanted to learn to perform X-ray diffraction experi- ments so that he could work to determine the structure of DNA. Watson and Francis Crick proceeded to deduce the double helix structure of DNA, which they submitted to the journal Nature and was subsequently published on April 25, 1953. Watson subsequently presented a paper on the double helical structure of DNA at the Cold Spring Harbor Symposium on Viruses in early June 1953.

  • Coase Theorem” Asserts That in the Absence of Transaction Costs, Parties to an Externality Will Bargain to an Efficient Outcome
    Abstract The \Coase theorem" asserts that in the absence of transaction costs, parties to an externality will bargain to an efficient outcome. It also claims that the resulting level of externality-generating is inde- pendent of initial assignment of rights. It is well-known that Coase's second claim is true if utility is quasi-linear so that the valuation of externalities does not depend on wealth. This paper finds a class of preferences for which Coase's second claim is true when there are wealth effects. It presents a necessary and sufficient condition for Coase's second claim and discusses applications of this result. 1 When Was Coase Right? Ted Bergstrom∗ Economics Department, University of California Santa Barbara [email protected] June 21, 2017 ∗This paper is dedicated to the memory of Richard Cornes and Leo Hurwicz, with whom it was my privilege to share thoughts and puzzlements about this topic. I am grateful to Di Wang of UCSB for useful discussions and for steering me to the Chipman-Tian paper, and also to Guoqiang Tian for helpful discussions. 1 Ronald Coase [7] argued that the amount of damage that one party causes to another typically depends on the actions of both parties. Coase maintained that, regardless of the way that the law assigns liability, if the perpetrator and recipient are able to bargain freely, they are likely to reach an efficient outcome. Coase's paper consists of a series of examples and insightful discussions. He made no claims of a formal theorem based on explicit assumptions. The term \Coase Theorem" seems to originate with George Stigler, who explained Coase's ideas in his textbook The Theory of Price [13], pp 110-114.
