American Economic Expertise from the Great War to the Cold War: Some Initial Observations
考察了20世纪美国经济学界如何因联邦政府调配资源和依赖专家而获得特权并被塑造，官僚化趋势影响了学科自我认知、分支领域和研究议程，经济学家参与政府事务促成了专业共识和研究生课程标准化，并在二战后帮助重建海外经济学界。
The twentieth-century American economics profession was privileged and shaped by the federal government's need to direct resources and to call on experts. Bureaucratic tendencies to classify and count had an impact on the discipline's self-concept, subdisciplines, and multiple research agendas. A consensus of professional opinion and the standardization of graduate curriculums emerged out of the involvement of economists with governmental affairs. Moreover, American economists played an important role in the reconstitution of the profession overseas after World War II.
