Abstrakt

Is L.H. White’s book, The Economic Clashes of the Last Hundred Years (2012), a modern text book of the history of economic thought? Kuhn (1970) argues that scientific development is a matter of the competition between theoretical paradigms. Coase (1994) applies this argument on the development of the economic theory. White (2012) tries to illustrate this argument on the development of economic theory of the last hundred years. In my opinion, this is how modern and advanced text books of the history of economic thought might be written.
