重新评估了Lloyd Mints在芝加哥大学货币经济学发展中的作用,认为他并非边缘人物,而是对弗里德曼的思想框架有重要影响。

Abstract

Evidence about Lloyd Mints’s role in the development of monetary economics at the University of Chicago has proven elusive, with the result that Mints has long been considered a peripheral figure at Chicago. We provide evidence showing that the standard assessment of Mints’s standing in Chicago monetary economics—and in American monetary economics more broadly—is deficient. In light of (1) the originality and the breadth of his monetary contributions, (2) the cross-fertilization of his thinking with that of Milton Friedman, and (3) the way Mints’s original contributions helped shape part of Friedman’s framework and were pushed forward by Friedman, we argue that, far from being a peripheral figure in the development of Chicago monetary economics, Mints played a more substantial role than has been previously thought in the emerging Chicago monetary economics of the late 1940s and early 1950s.
