Economists in the factories

[Michael Perelman <michael@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Lionel Robbins complained:   "We have all felt, with Professor
Schumpeter, a sense of almost shame at the incredible banalities of much
of the so-called theory of production -- the tedious discussions of
various forms of peasant proprietorship, factory, organization,
industrial psychology, technical education."  (ibid., p. 65; referring
to Schumpeter, 1908, p. 156)
