B I B L I O T H E C A A U G U S T A N A Thorstein Veblen T h e A u t h o r Thorstein Bunde Veblen, economist and social critic, was born in Cato Township, Wisc., in 1857. He did postgraduate work at John Hopkins and received a Ph.D. from Yale in 1884. But no job was available for him and he went back to his father's farm. In 1892 he finally got his first academic job at the University of Chicago. He lived eccentrically and was requested to resign. He continued to teach at a number of colleges: at Stanford (1906-09), at the University of Missouri (1911-18), at the New School for Social Research (1919-27), but he was not a successful lecturer. His last years he lived in a shack in the woods near Palo Alto, where he died in 1929. He is best known for his book "The Theory of the Leisure Class", that introduced the concept of "conspicuous consumption". "Veblen was a professional anti-specialist, he was a social thinker in the grand tradition, for he tried to grasp the essentials of an entire society and epoch, to delineate the characters of the typical men within it, and to determine its main drift" (C. Wright Mills).

The American Institutionalist School The American Institutionalist School, commonly associated with Thorstein Veblen , John Commons and Wesley Mitchell , was for a brief period effectively the orthodoxy in the United States, sandwiched between the fall of the American apologists in the early 1900s and the Paretian revolution of the 1930s. The Institutionalist school developed in the late 1880s in the United States and was heavily influenced by the German Historical School and the English Historicists . In the beginning, they did not shy away from direct confrontation with Classical and then Neoclassical economics, although their real targets were the plethora of apologists that dominated the American scene. Deploring the the universalist pretensions of much of economic theory, the Institutionalists stressed the importance of historical, social and institutional factors which make so-called economic "laws", contingent on these factors. Much of everything in the economic world, they argued, was not immutable but rather conditioned by the influence of an always changing history - whether acting on the individual directly, or indirectly through the institutions and society which surround him. However, the their success was ephemeral. The methodological battle between Richard T.

La escuela del Institucionalismo Americano factores contingentes economía dinámica economía institucional agente económico racional y maximizador modelos matemáticos evolucionismo darwinista Hacia finales del siglo XIX se desarrolló en Estados Unidos una corriente de pensamiento que es conocida como la Escuela Institucionalista Americana. No tiene todas las características de una escuela de pensamiento propiamente dicha, ya que no existió una conciencia entre sus miembros de pertenencia a la escuela ni un maestro reconocido. Sin embargo hay un líder destacado, Thorstein Veblen , y unos miembros cuya adscripción a la escuela es unánime, John Commons y Wesley Mitchell Los institucionalistas americanos fueron los primeros en destacar la importancia económica de los hábitos de conducta y de pensamiento de los grupos humanos y tratar de analizar y comprender el complejo de instituciones sociales. Estuvieron muy influidos por los historicistas alemanes y utilizaron conceptos procedentes de la psicología y del evolucionismo darwinista. Fueron fuertemente críticos con la teoría económica dominante en su época, denunciando que las que en la teoría económica suelen llamarse "leyes" son en realidad fenómenos contingentes que dependen de factores históricos, sociales e institucionales. Hay muy pocas cosas inmutables en la economía y muchas que son influenciables por los individuos y las instituciones.
