A couple of additional items worth pointing out: 1) Dunayevskaya, under her own name, had as far back as 1944 published in the _American Economic Review_. The _AER_ did not publish the works of graduate students! (Recall that Shoul received her PhD in 1947). RD's article, moreover, attracted quite a bit of attention -- including a reference in the front page of _The New York Times_ in October, 1944 and was commented on by Oscar Lange, Paul Baran, and Leo Rogin in the _AER_ (there was also a rejoinder by RD in the 9/45 issue of the _AER_). With this kind of attention in the profession and the media one can not just slip off and get a PhD under another name at a major college in the US! 2) Shoul's "Karl Marx and Say's Law" was published in the _Quarterly Journal of Economics_ in November, 1957. In the QJE article, she was still very much a disciple of Grossmann (see note #43), but Dunayevskaya -- who was also publishing works on political economy in the mid-1950s -- had no such favorable references to Grossmann. Indeed, her perspective had moved in a quite different direction. In solidarity, Jerry
