The productive work of widely distributed academic research has
contributed substantially, over the postwar period, to important
advances in our understanding. It has also offered a clearer
recognition of many unresolved problems. Never theless, the
progress achieved over the last decades, ex hibited by the
systematic application of "theory" to actual issues and observable
problems, could not overcome a per vasive sense of dissatisfaction.
Some academic endeavors pursued within a traditional range of
economic analysis have appeared increasingly remote from broad
social issues, motivating the social and intellectual unrest
experienced in recent years. Conditioned by the traditional use of
economic analysis, many have naturally concluded that the "most
relevant" social issues agitating our times are beyond the reach of
economics. Purist advocates of a traditional view thus condemn any
extension of economic analysis to social issues as an escape into
"ideology." Others argue the need for an "interdisciplinary
approach" involving sociology, social psychology, or anthropology
as necessary strands in a useful understanding of social,
institutional, and human problems of contemporary societies. We
note here, in par ticular, the subtle attraction inherent in
Marxian thought. It appears to offer a unified approach, with a
coherent inter pretation, to all matters and aspects of human
society, in cluding even nature."
