American Economics: The Character of the Transformation

Abstract

This introductory essay draws directly on the stimulating discussions and papers presented at the special HOPE conference on the subject of our volume held at Duke University in April 1997 and on the subsequent comments of conference participants in their capacity as referees for the essays submitted for the volume.Unfortunately, we were unable to include all the conference papers in this volume, but we thank all the participants for their help and apologize if we have unwittingly quoted them without acknowledgment.We thank the HOPE editors for their invitation to edit this special issue and the HOPE office for their help and advice during the conference and in the preparation of this volume.We thank the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation for its generous support of the conference.1. Landreth and Colander (1997) offer another account of the transformation in their broad survey paper.Samuels (forthcoming) offers an account, as well as a survey of all the conference papers and a report of the discussion that followed the presentation of each paper.
