History of European Economic Thought

<p>A <em>History of European Economic Thought</em><b> </b>grafts the history of economic thought onto Global History by showing how significant economic ideas have influenced the process of Europe’s formation from the very beginning to the present day.</p><p>This work combines two classical stories that until today have followed parallel paths. On the one hand there is the political history of Europe which is often limited to a few fleeting references to the ideas of the great economists of the past. On the other hand there is the history of economic thought which examines Europe as a whole as a distinct supranational community only with reference to the institutions created after World War II.</p><p>The volume sheds light on the constitutive values of Europe which also stem from a particular economic culture and provides essential reading for students and scholars of the history of economic thought.</p>
