FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS

SPECIAL ISSUE

THE HISTORY OF RADICAL (HETERODOX) ECONOMICS

Throughout its 35-year history, the Union for Radical Political Economics
has provided a voice to economists who oppose the neoclassical paradigm and
to those who wish to develop a compelling alternative analysis of the
economy.  Yet, much of the modern history of radical political economics is
located in personal memory and, on occasion, conveyed via the oral tradition
of storytelling.  It remains largely unwritten, much less critically
analyzed.  It is with this in mind that the Review of Radical Political
Economics announces a special issue on the History of Radical (Heterodox)
Economics.  This broad topic includes many different themes.  Articles may
be on the history of radical economics departments within and outside of the
United States.  Articles may be on the history of URPE and the RRPE and
their relationships with related groups.  Articles may be on the history of
fields of inquiry within contemporary radical thought.  In particular, we
wish to explicitly encourage organizational histories and personal accounts
that are embedded in the history of ideas and in the development of
particular research programs in political economy.

Articles should be sent to the managing editor of the RRPE by July 1, 2004,
specifying their consideration for the special issue on the History of
Radical (Heterodox) Economics.  Therefore, send four copies of any article
in this area to:
