Conclusion: Joan Robinson’s Legacy

Geoffrey Harcourt and Prue Kerr

Chapter 12 in Joan Robinson, 2009, pp 203-227 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract We stress that this volume is an intellectual biography, a discussion of the development of the ideas, in the main, of one person. However, because Joan Robinson always stressed the need for teamwork in the development of ideas, we have also documented the influence on her, and the contributions of those we could loosely call Joan Robinson and her circle. We have left the discussion of personal, as opposed to intellectual interactions, to a minimum, though we hope we have been able to convey to readers who did not know Joan Robinson personally what an extraordinary person she was.
