An Economic Analysis of Indian Behavior in the North American Fur Trade

John C. McManus

The Journal of Economic History, 1972, vol. 32, issue 1, 36-53

Abstract: This study of Indian behavior in the fur trade is offered more as a report of a study in progress than a completed piece of historical research. In fact, the research has barely begun. But in spite of its unfinished state, the tentative results of the work I have done to this point may be of some interest as an illustration of the way in which the recent revival of analytical interest in institutions may be used to develop an approach to the economic history of the fur trade.
