Talk:Jacob Marschak

Untitled
I have collected some material (yes, with adequate sources) to beef this up a bit. One anachronism will have to go: when JM was born there was no such country as Ukraine. He was born in Kiev, which was then part of the Russian Empire. Will be adapted accordingly Robertsch55 10:06, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Citation
``Father of econometrics"? Really.  I knew Jacob Marschak, know his work and its importance for econometrics, and I know what others have written about him.  I have never ever heard or read of Marschak being referred to this way.  Please provide a citation.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.249.185.92 (talk) 20:43, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Incorrect Claim
Radner and Marschak did not co-found the theory of teams in 1972. According to Radner, Marschak introduced the term in 1954 in a paper in the Thrall Coombs and Davis volume, and published ``Elements for a Theory of Teams'' in Management Science. Other people worked on teams before the Marschak-Radner book. For instance, Ted Groves 1969 doctoral dissertation was on the theory of teams. Radner's discussion of these events can be found at http://pages.stern.nyu.edu/~rradner/publishedpapers/54JacobMarschak.pdf, which appeared in in H. W. Spiegel and W. J. Samuels, eds., Contemporary Economists in Perspective, JAI Press, Greenwich, Connecticut, 1984. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.249.185.92 (talk) 20:55, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
