[OPE-L] Sraffa's Contribution to Marxian Political Economy

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.  

In solidarity, Jerry
