Beschreibung

First Edition. 585 pp; corrigenda leaf. Original cloth. Near Fine, in near fine dust jacket. 'Although a student of Cassel s at Stockholm, Erik Lundberg nonetheless was more 'Wicksellian' in spirit. His formidable 1937 thesis was the most articulate and comprehensive statement of the Stockholm School s method of 'sequence analysis'. His analysis of 'gaps' in goods and labor markets predates the 'disequilibrium' Walrasian-Keynesian approach of Don Patinkkin and Bent Hansen' (History of Economic Thought Web site).

Reseña del editor:

This selection of Lundberg's writings, from a career comprising more than five decades, begins with his first work, his licentiate thesis of 1930, and ends with his last publication written shortly before his death in 1987. Thirty-seven essays, reviews and other texts offer access for the first time to previously unpublished manuscripts, many of which document Lundberg's early work at Stockholm University during the 1920s and as a Rockefeller fellow in the United States during the 1930s.

In addition to his significant contributions to macroeconomic theory, this anthology shows convincingly that Lundberg's posthumous fame derives from his strong performance in applied economics as a critic and adviser on policy problems. Lundberg emerges here as both a prudent and provocative commentator on the paradoxes and policy dilemmas relating to the "rise and fall" of the Swedish Model.
