Review of Malcolm Rutherford’s The institutionalist movement in American economics, 1918-1947: Science and social control. (Cambridge (UK): Cambridge University Press, 2011), 410pp.
Erasmus Journal for Philosophy and Economics, 5 (1).
pp. 93-99.
In publications spanning just over three decades, Malcolm Rutherford has been an important contributor to the study of American institutionalism as both a theoretical framework and an intellectual movement. For the last fifteen years or so, Rutherford’s efforts have centered on developing a systematic study of American institutionalism in the interwar period. The result, based on meticulous archival labor, is this goldmine of a book. This is the definitive history of American institutionalism, and surely the benchmark for any research to come.
