Kennedy-Klein Debate

Dan Klein has kindly invited me to respond to his authoritative contribution on the invisible hand hand debate in the September issue of Economic Journal Watch and I have accepted his proposal.

Therefore, I shall not be responding on Lost Legacy in the meantime. This gives many opportunites for readers to familiarise themslves with both mine and Dan's papers the current (May) issue of EJW.

I shall address Dan Klein's main points and identify the main differences between us in the spirit of good-mannered, scholarly debate, as exemplified in Dan's serious treatment of my case in 'Adam Smith and the Invisible Hand: from metaphor to myth'.
