Peter is correct that radical economics is not reproducing itself. The space for new left economists is limited to a few liberal arts colleges, Catholic institutions, and less prestigious state colleges. For the most part, these do not have graduate programs. During the '60s, students demanded something other than standard neoclassical fare. In order to maintain majors, departments had to hire a few lefties to make their programs more interesting. I was hired for this purpose. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
