Cambridge Capital Controversy: Unlocking Economic Paradigms, The Cambridge Capital Controversy

By Fouad Sabry

What is Cambridge Capital Controversy

In economics, the Cambridge capital controversy, sometimes known as "the capital controversy" or "the two Cambridges debate," was a dispute that began in the 1950s and continued far into the 1960s. It was a disagreement between proponents of two different theoretical and mathematical perspectives in economics. The nature and function of capital goods, as well as a critique of the neoclassical perspective on aggregate output and distribution, were the topics of discussion during the debate. A significant portion of the debate took place between economists such as Joan Robinson and Piero Sraffa at the University of Cambridge in England and economists such as Paul Samuelson and Robert Solow at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. The name of the controversy originates from the location of the principals who were involved in the controversy.
