These perspectives contrasted with those of contemporary neoclassical and later mainstream economic approaches. We identify three distinct dimensions to an institutionalist perspective on competition. First, institutionalist approaches focused on describing industry details, so as to bring theory into closer contact with reality. Second, institutionalists emphasized that while competition was sometimes beneficial, it could also be disruptive. Third, institutionalists had a broad view of the objectives of competition policy that extended beyond effects on consumer welfare. Consequently, institutionalists advocated for a wide range of policies to enhance competition, including industrial self-regulation, broad stakeholder representation within corporations, and direct governmental regulations. Their experimental attitude implied that policy would always be evolving, and antitrust enforcement might be only one stage in the development toward a regime of industrial regulation.}, language = {en} } @article{LangeSchumacherSvorencik2017, author = {Lange, Jerome and Schumacher, Reinhard and Svorencik, Andrej}, title = {From antiquity to modern macro}, series = {History of economic ideas}, volume = {25}, journal = {History of economic ideas}, number = {2}, publisher = {Fabrizio Serra Editore}, address = {Pisa}, issn = {1122-8792}, doi = {10.19272/201706102007}, pages = {171 -- 205}, year = {2017}, abstract = {This survey provides an overview of topics related to the history of economics that have been discussed within the last two years in journal articles. The survey format has been started by History of Economic Ideas last year with the survey by Giulia Bianchi (2016) and is aimed to increase the visibility of research in the history of economics. The emphasis of our survey is on the big three journals in the history of economics: the European Journal of the History of Economic Thought, the Journal of the History of Economic Thought and History of Political Economy. We also included additional journals that frequently publish articles related to the history of economics. These include, in alphabetical order, the Cambridge Journal of Economics, Contributions to Political Economy, Economic Thought, the Erasmus Journal for Philosophy and Economics, History of Economic Thought and Policy, the History of Economics Review, the Journal of Economic Literature, the Journal of Economic Methodology, the Journal of Economic Perspectives, OE conomia, Oxford Economic Papers and Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology.}, language = {en} } @article{PaganelliSchumacher2018, author = {Paganelli, Maria Pia and Schumacher, Reinhard}, title = {The vigorous and doux soldier}, series = {History of European ideas}, volume = {44}, journal = {History of European ideas}, number = {8}, publisher = {Routledge, Taylor \& Francis Group}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {0191-6599}, doi = {10.1080/01916599.2018.1509225}, pages = {1141 -- 1152}, year = {2018}, abstract = {If war is an inevitable condition of human nature, as David Hume suggests, then what type of societies can best protect us from defeat and conquest? For David Hume, commerce decreases the relative cost of war and promotes technological military advances as well as martial spirit. Commerce therefore makes a country militarily stronger and better equipped to protect itself against attacks than any other kind of society. Hume does not assume commerce would yield a peaceful world nor that commercial societies would be militarily weak, as many contemporary scholars have argued. On the contrary, for him, military might is a beneficial consequence of commerce.}, language = {en} } @misc{Schumacher2016, author = {Schumacher, Reinhard}, title = {Propriety and Prosperity: New Studies on the Philosophy of Adam Smith, Archival Insights Into the Evolution of Economics}, series = {Journal of behavioral and experimental economics}, volume = {62}, journal = {Journal of behavioral and experimental economics}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {New York}, issn = {2214-8043}, doi = {10.1016/j.socec.2016.02.002}, pages = {51 -- 52}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @article{Schumacher2016, author = {Schumacher, Reinhard}, title = {Adam Smith and the "rich country-poor country" debate: eighteenth-century views on economic progress and international trade}, series = {The European journal of the history of economic thought}, volume = {23}, journal = {The European journal of the history of economic thought}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {0967-2567}, doi = {10.1080/09672567.2015.1050046}, pages = {764 -- 793}, year = {2016}, language = {en} } @article{Schumacher2015, author = {Schumacher, Reinhard}, title = {Adam Smith's "Two Distinct Benefits" from Trade: The Dead End of "Vent-for-Surplus" Interpretations}, series = {History of political economy}, volume = {47}, journal = {History of political economy}, number = {4}, publisher = {Duke Univ.
