ECONOMIC DOCTRINE AND METHOD – Selected Papers of R.W. Clower

Covering Robert Clower’s writings over four decades, this collection brings together important papers that have not been reprinted in any other similar volume and recent material on economic method and theoretical foundations.

Issues discussed include the doctrine and methodology of economics, price determination, oligopoly theory and Keynesian economics, as well as some of Professor Clower’s substantial reviews of the work of other scholars. Above all, they offer an instructive ‘history’ of one scholar’s attempt to enhance scientific understanding of observed economic phenomena during the last half century. The volume concludes with a complete listing of Professor Clower’s publications.
