![]() ![]() Schliesser also links to a fascinating hour-long interview with Blaug in 2006. ![]() ![]() The second post goes into some detail about Blaug’s career. It is evident from these pages that Rawls paid close attention to the book. The first post provides PDFs of several pages of notes and annotations in Rawls’s hand in a copy of Economic Theory in Retrospect, thanks to David Levy. Eric Schliesser posted several interesting items last fall at the time of Mark Blaug’s death. Since then I’ve learned that there is more direct evidence of Rawls’s study of Blaug. I noted that Rawls refers several times in A Theory of Justice to Mark Blaug’s important history of economic thought, Economic Theory in Retrospect , and speculated that this might have been an important source of knowledge for Rawls. In an earlier post I spent some time trying to determine what the major sources were of Rawls’s knowledge of the history of classical political economy. ![]()
