American Institutionalism and the History of Economics

Author

  • Rutherford, Malcolm

Abstract

Being the President of a society such as this is a position that brings with it relatively few benefits. One very definite benefit it does confer, however, is the opportunity to address one's peers on a subject of one's choice, for an indefinite period of time, and with no fear of contradiction; no referees, no discussants, and not even any questions from the audience. I intend to make use of this unconstrained state by being somewhat more speculative in my remarks than I could otherwise be.
