Memories of Joan Robinson

Abstract

The effects of the capital theory controversy were first felt in the teaching of economics when I was a graduate student in the late 1960s. At the University of Wisconsin there were both defenders and critics of neoclassical theory. The critics did not appear to me to have any political axe to grind. They simply had an argument to present. I suffered a certain loss of faith in the logical coherence of the neoclassical theory I had learned, but the excitement generated by the debate was a great compensation.
