Abstract
GEOFF HARCOURT studied economics at the University of Melbourne before writing his PhD dissertation at Cambridge. After a quarter of a century at the University of Adelaide (which included a spell at Cambridge from 1964 to 1966 on leave without pay from Adelaide as a University Lecturer in Economics and Politics and a Fellow of Trinity Hall), he returned to Cambridge in 1982, where he is now Reader in the History of Economic Theory and a Fellow of Jesus. Geoff Harcourt is probably best known for his Some Cambridge Controversies in the Theory of Capital (1972). Selections of his articles have been published as The Social Science Imperialists (1982), Controversies in Political Economy (1986), and, most recently, On Political Economists and Modern Political Economy (Routledge, 1992) and Post Keynesian Essays in Biography (Macmillan, 1993).
