This volume offers an account of the development of economic
thought in Portugal. It covers the age of the Discoveries until the
end of the first half of the 20th century. It also presents the
main features of Portuguese economic literature and provides a
summary of the theoretical and economic policy problems that have
been identified and discussed by Portuguese economists over the
last five centuries. The authors adopt a comparative approach to
analyze how economic doctrine, theories and policies have been
disseminated and assimilated by Portuguese authors in different
periods. They assess the influence on Portuguese economic thought
of major economists such as Adam Smith, Keynes and Hayek. The
volume argues that national histories of economic thought are not
only useful for the extra knowledge they provide but also for their
contribution to the renewal of a valuable historiographic tradition
which explores marginalised historical and intellectual discourses.
