Resumen
Descripción
El institucionalismo económico es una corriente de pensamiento cuyo nacimiento
puede situarse hacia fines del siglo XIX, a partir de la publicación de la obra The
Theory of the Leisure Class por parte de Thorstein Veblen y A Sociological View of
Sovereignty de John R. Commons, ambas de 1899.
Se demuestra que el institucionalismo fue, en su origen, un movimiento intelectual
esencialmente norteamericano con una considerable influencia en los ámbitos
académicos y políticos en el período que media entre el fin de la Primera Guerra
Mundial y la crisis de la tercera década del siglo XX. Se busca remarcar el aspecto
disidente del institucionalismo frente a la dominancia del sistema clásico. Esta labor
permite establecer los orígenes y la identidad de un movimiento económico de
importancia para el presente de la ciencia económica, puesto que desde hace algunos
años se vive un renacimiento institucionalista.
Economic institutionalism is a current of thought whose birth can be placed towards the end of the 19th century, from the publication of the book The Theory of the Leisure Class, by Thorstein Veblen and A Sociological View of Sovereignty, by John R. Commons, both of 1899. It is demonstrate that institutionalism was, in its origin, an essentially American intellectual movement with considerable influence in academic and political spheres in the period between the end of First World War and the crisis of the third decade of the twentieth century. It seeks to highlight the dissident aspect of institutionalism against the dominance of the classical system. This work allows to establish the origins and identity of an economic movement of importance for the present of economic science, since for some years ago there has been an institutionalist revival.
