The Ideas of George Shackle and Henry Boettinger

Bruce Littleboy

History of Economics Review, 2012, vol. 56, issue 1, 71-84

Abstract: G.L.S. Shackle’s collected papers are held at Cambridge. One correspondent was Henry Boettinger, a senior corporate executive. Their letters and published writings reveal aspects of their ideas on economics as a practical art, an applied science and as creative theory. Boettinger had reflected upon his practical experience in making critical decisions, and Shackle sought to explain how such decisions were made.
