Hi Riccardo! > von Neumann: the first to put him in the Classical tradition was > Napoleoni in 1963-4 (to my knowledge), it seems that K&S do not > acknowledge that, but I am unsure about that. His most famous collaborator, Oscar Morgenstern, was clearly a marginalist. So, his status as a figure in the classical tradition is subject to doubt. I think it might be better to think of von Neumann as a figure who had a foot in at least a couple of different (and contradictory) intellectual traditions. > an interesting taxonomy of the 'Sraffian' schools is made by > Roncaglia, who distinguishes among 'neoSmithian', 'neoRicardian' and > 'neoMarxian' in a little book recently published by Routledge. What about neo-Napoleonian? What's the name of the book? In solidarity, Jerry
