About the Editors

Luca Fiorito received his PhD in Economics from the New School for Social Research in New York and is currently an Associate Professor at the University of Palermo. His main area of interest is the history of American economic thought in the Progressive Era and the interwar years. He has published many works on the contributions of the institutionalists and on the relationship between economics and eugenics.

Scott Scheall is Assistant Professor of Social Science with Arizona State University’s College of Integrative Sciences and Arts. He received his PhD in Philosophy from Arizona State in 2012. Scott is a former Research Fellow with Duke University’s Center for the History of Political Economy and a former Postdoctoral Fellow with the F.A. Hayek Program for Advanced Study in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics at George Mason University. He has published extensively on the history and methodology of the Austrian School of economics.

Carlos Eduardo Suprinyak is Associate Professor of Economics at the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), Brazil. He specializes in the history of economic thought and economic methodology, studying in particular the interplay between social, political, and economic ideas in early modern England, and the institutionalization of academic economics in Brazil during the postwar era. He has published several papers on these and other related themes in peer-reviewed scholarly journals, and is also the co-editor of The Political Economy of Latin American Independence (Routledge, 2017).

List of Contributors

Volume Introduction

The third and final volume of Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology to be published in 2018 features a symposium edited by Andrés Álvarez on theories of money and banking in post-independence Latin America. Contributors to the symposium include Matías Vernengo and Esteban Pérez Caldentey, Ricardo Solis Rosales, Florencia Sember, and Edna Carolina Sastoque Ramírez.

Volume 36C also includes general research contributions from C. Tyler DesRoches and Dorian Jullien. DesRoches’s essay considers the development of the concept of natural capital in the work of the eighteenth-century Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus. Jullien’s essay constitutes a significant new addition to the literature on the methodology of behavioral economics.
