HISTORICISM AND NEOCLASSICISM IN THE KIEV SCHOOL OF ECONOMICS: THE CASE OF ALEKSANDER BILIMOVICH
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 March 2010
Abstract
Aleksander Bilimovich (1876–1963) is often considered to have been one of the last representatives of the Kiev School of economics, which was influenced by the German Historical School as well as by the emerging neoclassical theory. After the Soviet revolution, Bilimovich continued his work in exile and was developing his theoretical and methodological views along two lines of the Kiev tradition. On the one side he maintained the historical approach, and on the other side he was inclined towards the deductivist and mathematical approach. The paper thus questions the established view among the historians of Russian economic thought of Bilimovich as a consistent adherent of marginalism. His work bears also several features of historicism.
