Veblen

The Making of an Economist Who Unmade Economics

Beschreibung

Thorstein Veblenà â â s analysis of Americaà â â s parasitic upper class, which plunders its wealth from productive workers, is widely attributed to his outsider status. But Charles Camic shows that Veblenà â â s ideas did not derive from social marginality. Veblen was a professional economist whose fierce social critique was the work of an academic insider.
