Abstract

PurposeThis essay is a tribute to Jaroslav Vanek who spent 32 years at Cornell University where he founded the Program on Participation and Labor-Managed Systems (PPLMS) in 1970, which became the home for economic research on these issues in the US. It is a brief intellectual history of a multi-dimensional scholar.Design/methodology/approachVanek's seminal work in the American Economic Review in 1969 marked the culmination of a decade of work on labor management inspired by his brother Jan's work on Yugoslavia, considered then to be a worker-managed economic system. In two rapidly following tomes, Vanek laid out the landscape for the development of a new subfield in economics by providing precursors to many of the results to follow. In that previous decade, Vanek produced papers in traditional economic theory, e.g. international trade and economic growth.FindingsVanek's mindset persists in the interplay between the emerging theory of labor-managed firms and traditional economic literature that takes seriously the role of organizational form. This essay develops that cross-pollination and seeks to identify the remaining questions and issues for future work that the economics profession owes to Jaroslav Vanek.Originality/valueConnection of strands of literature in the economic theory with the literature on labor-managed firms and worker-managed economies tracing the evolution of the latter to the work of Jaroslav Vanek.
雅罗斯拉夫·瓦内克的知识遗产:吐温是如何相遇的
本文是对Jaroslav Vanek的致敬,他在康奈尔大学工作了32年,并于1970年创立了参与和劳动管理系统计划(PPLMS),该计划成为美国对这些问题进行经济研究的家。这是一位多面手学者的思想简史。设计/方法/方法vanek在1969年《美国经济评论》上的开创性工作标志着他在劳工管理方面的十年工作的高潮,他的兄弟Jan在南斯拉夫的工作受到启发,当时被认为是一个工人管理的经济体系。在随后的两部大部头著作中,瓦内克通过提供许多后续结果的先导,为经济学中一个新分支领域的发展描绘了前景。在那之前的十年里,Vanek发表了关于传统经济理论的论文,例如国际贸易和经济增长。在新兴的劳动管理企业理论和重视组织形式作用的传统经济学文献之间的相互作用中,vanek的思维方式仍然存在。本文发展了这种交叉授粉,并试图确定经济学专业欠雅罗斯拉夫·瓦内克的未来工作的剩余问题和问题。原创性/价值将经济理论中的文献与劳动管理公司和工人管理经济的文献联系起来,将后者的演变追溯到Jaroslav Vanek的工作。
