About this book
This book, the second of two volumes, explores the legacy of Trevor Winchester Swan, often described as Australia’s greatest ever economist. Some of Swan’s most prominent articles are presented alongside analysis of his work from leading historians of economic thought to provide a broad and insightful view of his work. Particular attention is given to Swan’s work on the balance of payments, economic development, capital accumulation, and the neoclassical growth model.
This book aims to shed light on the enigmatic and influential life of Trevor Winchester Swan. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in the history of economic thought and those that want to understand the foundations of modern macro, trade, and neoclassical economics.
