This overview of Australasian economic thought presents the first
analysis of the Australian economic contribution for 25 years, and
is the first to offer a panoramic sweeping account of New Zealand
economic thought. Those two countries, both at the start of the
twentieth century and at its end, excelled at innovative economic
practices and harbouring unique economic institutions. A History of
Australasian Economic Thought explains how Australian and New
Zealand economists exerted influence on economic thought and
contributed to the economic life of their respective countries in
the twentieth century. Besides surveying theorists and innovators,
this book also considers some of the key expositors and builders of
the academic economics profession in both countries. The book
covers key economic events including the Great Depression, the
Second World War, the post-war boom and the great inflation that
overtook it and, lastly, the economic reform programmes that both
Australia and New Zealand undertook in the 1980s. Through the
interplay of economic events and economic thought, this book shows
how Australasian economists influenced, to differing degrees,
economic policy in their respective countries. This book is of
great importance to those who are interested in and study the
history of economic thought, economic theory and philosophy, and
philosophy of social science, as well as Australasian economics.
