Saturday 9amThere was a very interesting panel at the Eastern Economics Association 2007 Conference yesterday on this subject. Riccardo was one of the presenters; Gary was a commentator (along with Robert Solow [!] and Ed Nell). Other familiar comrades such as Gil Skillman and Duncan Foley were also there. It may surprise some of you to hear that although I entered the room at 4:03 PM there was standing-room only in the packed room. Although some of those attending were probably there primarily to hear Solow (although, I could be mistaken: maybe they were there primarily to hear Riccardo?) I think it's also clear that this was evidence that there was quite a bit of interest in both Sraffa and Marxian political economy.
