Inhaltsangabe

?DeBrizzi argues that the immense influence of [the John Commons-Wisconsin school theory, a live and let live' attitude, rather than class struggle] is better explained by its fit with the ideology of the reform-oriented entrepreneurs so admired by Commons than by its fit with the facts. DeBrizzi examines the earlier theories of Richard Ely and Henry Carter Adams (also reform-oriented antisocialist), the historical phenomena these theories were trying to explain, and the process of institutionalization that established the Commons-Wisconsin theory as hegemonic. ... The presentation is lively and the argument intriguing. Recommended for all public, college, and university libraries.?-Choice
