On the interpretation of Ricardo: a response to Professor Morishima
Article Abstract:
Morishima has written an interesting work on Ricardo which helps students of Morishima's economics, but is misleading for students seeking to understand Ricardo. There are more differences between the views of Walrus and Ricardo than Morishima has recognised. Morishima has misinterpreted Ricardo in a number of ways, for example in not distinguishing between a focus on permanent wage changes which Ricardo separates from temporary changes. Morishima argues that he is seeking a new perspective in understanding the history of economic theory, but it is a mistaken perspective.
