Political Economy in Agriculture, Depression, War, and Peace

James Ronald Stanfield and Jacqueline Bloom Stanfield

Chapter 2 in John Kenneth Galbraith, 2011, pp 38-60 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract As noted above, Galbraith began an active publication regime while still at Berkeley in the 1930s, drawing upon his dissertation and other research he conducted on various projects (see Parker, 2005, pp. 678–9, n. 23). Incipient aspects of his mature work arose when he began working with Black at Harvard and it is there that we start our survey of his work in the periods of the Depression and the Second World War and its aftermath. In this we see the evolution of his principal focus from agricultural economics to industrial organization and macroeconomics.
