Description: |
Veblen was a thinker of such depth and power that he was able to create his own intellectual paradigm. The conclusions reached in many chapters of this book are that scholars attempting to categorise his work will be unable to do so, largely because he was "sui generis" and eclectic. |
Synopsis: |
Scholars attempting to place Veblen in a particular intellectual tradition will only succeed in reaping frustration and confusion until it is recognized that he was primarily ^Isui generis^R and eclectic. This is the recurring theme that is made explicit in the introduction, conclusion, and some of the chapters of this work. Veblen was a thinker of such depth and power that he was able to create his own intellectual paradigm. The result of his endeavors is that more than a few intellectuals including his followers, the institutional economists, have spent their careers trying to understand the paradigm and to develop it in several directions for their own purposes. |
