Writings and Speeches, 1925-2000, bulk 1973-2000
- Scope and content:
-
The first group of files represents Scitovsky's last work on violence and its connection to social boredom. Other files contain drafts, lectures, clippings, articles, and notes for earlier research topics: consumer and human satisfaction; the US economy and social conditions; market economies; the problems of affluence; growth and stagnation; and inflation. Another grouping contains notes, drafts, and photographs that contributed to his memoirs, published in part under the title "A Proud Hungarian." The bulk of the material represents his research dating from the 1980s-2000; earlier works are best represented in their final published form in the Printed Material series. Materials within subgroupings are arranged in original order as received.
