Institutions and evolution of capitalism in Geoff Hodgson’s work

Francesca Gagliardi and David Gindis

Chapter 1 in Institutions and Evolution of Capitalism, 2019, pp 2-12 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In work spanning four decades, Geoff Hodgson has made many path-breaking contributions to institutional economics, evolutionary economics, economic methodology, the history of economic thought and social theory more broadly. Hodgson’s reputation as a prolific and important writer, whose work transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries, is matched by his credentials as an academic entrepreneur, whose involvement in the formation of two international scholarly societies and the foundation of the Journal of Institutional Economics has expanded the opportunities for constructive dialogue among social scientists. To celebrate Hodgson’s fantastic career, this volume brings together 19 original contributions by world-leading scholars in specific areas that have played a significant role in influencing Hodgson’s thinking or represent key debates to which he has contributed. The chapter introduces these contributions, and summarizes the conversation based on interviews with Hodgson that is also included in the volume
