Abstract

In 1980 (or thereabouts), I was asked to reflect on the major issues in the capital theory controversies, together with the critique of neoclassical theory and the alternative approach(es) that were then being developed as a consequence of the critique. This was a tall order; I tried to fulfill the brief by setting down some general reflections on the issues. In the event, the paper was never published. As I said in Harcourt (1995a), it ‘was thought to be in poor taste, unprofessional and unfair’. I added that ‘looking back [in 1995] I thought it was spot on’ (245), so I am delighted that Paul Davidson has allowed me to publish it here, together with an addendum in which I may retract and/or add to my then-views. What follows is the original script (with a bit of necessary supporting scholarship added). Please read on.
