A February 2001 conference considered the influence of political developments on the evolution of economic thought. Papers from the conference are arranged according to five main areas: monetary theory and policy, economic crisis in France and the emergence of the physiocratic school, the co-evolution of political ideas and economic thought in different countries and periods in Europe, continuity and discontinuity in Russian economic thought, and attempted economic solutions to the problems posed by the Great Depression and the associated political transformation.
