    The famous economist.

    Jim’s notes: PROFESSOR THORSTEIN B. VEBLEN Det er risikabelt a være dogmatisk i slike ting; men om jeg skulde nevne den mann av Valdresætt som har nådd høiest som videnskapelig tenker, vilde jeg ikke betenke mig på å utpeke prof. THORSTEIN VEBLEN. Som alle fremragende, særmerkte ånder ha r han gått sine egne, ikke mengdens veier, og de førte ham inn på stier som ligger fjernt fra den slagne jernbanerute til heit betalte og betrodde stillinger ved landets store universiteter. Men i de tenkningens stille verksteder, hvor i socialpol itiske ideer veies og tumles med ærlig og uforfærdet uten skjelen til Rockefelers millionpensjonsfond for utslitte professorer, der undlater man ikke å regne med forfatteren til "The theory of the leisure class" og andre social-økonomiske verker. Som sin bekjente bror, prof. Andrew Veben, blev han født på en farm i Manitowoc County, Wis., av foreldre Thomas Andersen Veblen (udv. fra Vevle i Yang 1847 og Kari Bunde. Det var ikke rart bevendt med almueskolen, men lærelystne som de var, fik k de tak i bøker, og den eldre bror forteller at Thorstein viste tegn på skarp iagttagelsesevne og tilbøielighet til å løse de små problemer der forefalt, på sin egen vis. 23 ar gammel blev han student fra Carleton college, gikk derpå til Johns Ho pkins universitet, Baltimore og senere til Yale, hvor han fikk doktorgraden i 1884. De følgende fem ar tilbrakte han for det meste på landet på grunn av forbigaende mindre god helbred, men fortsatte sine sociologiske studier og la sig ved siden de rav særlig efter oldnorsk. 1 1891 fikk han sa en lærerstilling i nationalekonomi ved Cornell universitet og ved slutten av 1892 en lignende post ved Chicago universitet. Fjorten år senere utnevntes han til assisterende professor ved Leland Stamfor d junior universitet, hvor han virket til 1909. Dernæst finner vi ham som lærer ved Missouri statsuniversitet; men eftersom båndene på den akademiske lærefrihet mere og mere strammedes, blev universitetsatmosfæren ham tilsist uutholdelig, og efte r nogen måneder å ha utført statistisk for regjeringen i Washington fant han endelig i 1917 et friere virkefelt som professor ved The New School for Social Research i New York, en organisasjon der ikke er avhengig av bakstreverske politikere elle r maktsyke millionærer. Ved siden av sin virksomhet som lærer har prof. VEBLEN utfoldet en fruktbar forfattervirksomhet. Hans første større verk "The Theory of the leisure Class", vakte med ett slag opmerksomhet ved den originale og rammende måte hvorpå han analyserte de n moderne parasitt-type i samfundene og det beundringsverdige system den har utviklet for a hevde sig som en æret overklasse der ikke behøver å besmitte sine fingre med arbeide. Det er med sin stillferdige han og flengende ironi en bok der har hat t enorm innflytelse i vide kretse. En ven av mig har fortalt at en kjent professor ved Kristiania universitet anså den for en av de aller betydeligste verker der har sett lyset i de siste femti ar, og her tillands kan man vanskelig støte på et nat ionaløkonomisk verk av rang der ikke har en henvisning til "The Theory of the Leisure Class. Senere har prof. VEBLEN utgitt flere vektige verker inn en sin videnskap; "The Theory of Business enterprise", 1904, "Imperial Germany and the Industrial revolution", 1915, "An enquiry into the Nature of peace", 1917, "The Higher Learning in Ameri ca", 1918, The Vested Interests", 1919, "The Place of Seience in modern Civilization", 1918 og endelig "The Engineers and the Prize System", 1921. Ved siden derav var han 1896-1905 redakter av tidsskriftet "Journal of Political Economy". Sine ferier tilbringer VEBLEN gjernest i en sommerhytte som han har bygget sig på Washington Island, Door County, Wisconsin, og der er han ofte best oplagt til forfatterarbeide. Han har avlagt minst tre besøk i gamle Norge. Skrevet av bibliotekar Juul Dieserud
