Abstract: From Wisconsin Institutionalism to American Macroeconomics: Some Lessons from the Early History of Unemployment Insurance in the United StatesSocial policy has been a field of expression for debates and for analytical and political evolution during the New Deal. This has in fact been left out by historians of economic thought. This paper focuses on the querelle which has been going on during the genesis of unemployment insurance in the United-States. This one opposes Wisconsin's Institutionalism leaded by J. R. Commons and a diffuse group composed of reformers and economists developing some "Keynesian elements" in American thought. The lessons of the American way are put to the fore, indeed completing the historiography of this period.
