Warren Samuels

Warren Joseph Samuels, (born 1933, New York City) is an American economist and historian of economic thought. He received a BBA from Miami University and obtained his Ph.D. from Wisconsin University. After holding academic posts in the University of Missouri, Georgia State University, Atlanta, and Miami University, he was appointed Professor of Economics in Michigan State University in 1968, where he stayed until his retirement in 1998.

Warren Samuels has made many extremely valuable contributions to the history of economic thought and the methodology of economics. His work has been inspired primarily by his "...interest in generating greater clarity as to the economic role of government both in the history of economic thought and in contemporary economics" [Blaug (1999), p.976] .
