G. L. S. Shackle’s Place in the History of Subjectivist Thought

In: Unknowledge and Choice in Economics

Author

Listed:
  • L. M. Lachmann

Abstract

Most of us are familiar with an experience that, baffling and discouraging as it is in the narrower context of expounding subjectivist doctrine, points to the existence of a deeper problem pertaining to the way in which economists understand their own role. The experience is this: having referred a friend or student to Shackle’s work, one is told after a time that, gratifying and exciting as the experience was, the reader found it hard to see what all this had to do with the daily concerns of economists.
