Psychology, Scientific Control, Chicago, and the Impact of European Emigres

Review essay on Rutherford, M. (2011), The Institutionalist Movement in American Economics, 1918-1947: Science and Social Control, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, UK.I use the review to highlight the importance of psychology in the development of the institutionalist conception of science and social control, to make a few additional remarks expanding upon Rutherford’s “connections” between institutionalism and Chicago economics, and also add an addendum to his argument for why institutionalism went into decline in the post-war years.
