Opis

This book examines the legacy of the capital switching - or so-called Two Cambridges - debate of the 1960s and the enormous impact it has had on economic theory.

Recenzje

'Birner’s very valuable local insights are ... best combined with a global perspective on the controversies.  Together, these differing analytical perspectives are contributing to a more stabilized assessment of the Cambridge capital theory controversies.' - HOPE
