Introduction: Sik’s Third Way of Economic Evolution

Kurt Dopfer

Chapter 1 in The Evolution of Economic Systems, 1990, pp 1-18 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract A scholar’s theory is part of his biography. It may be different perhaps in physics, but few economists would disagree entirely with this opinion. In any case, it is hard not to recognise the connections between the eventful life of Ota Sik and his theories.1 Demonstration of this is facilitated by the fact that his biography falls into two easily distinguishable parts: the ‘Eastern’ and the ‘Western’.
