In the first half of this study, Clark analyzes the conceptions, growth and purposes of social control as well as the legal aspects of formal and informal institutions that serve as agencies of control. The second half deals with public utilities and trusts including a section on New Deal experimentation in state control and on the development of totalitarianism abroad. "In social economics, Clark ... explored the fundamental legal-economic nexus of society in a non-ideological manner." The New Palgrave/

Economics both describes the way economic forces work and studies the effi ciency, or ineffi ciency, that results. These two aspects of economics have probably never been wholly separated, and it is debatable how far it is possible or desirable to separate them. The question will ultimately be answered by evaluating these different theoretical methods in terms of the results they deliver. The theory of economic effi ciency uniquely incorporates problem of ideals of good conduct and welfare; in short, of morals and ethics. Preface to Social Economics presents thumbnail sketches describing the growth of our awareness of social problems over the past century. Beginning in the nineteenth century, the sciences, both natural and social, made us aware of many factors governing our behavior. With the discovery of controllable external social causes, the responsibility for problems (and change) shifted from the individual to the group. Studies of industrial accidents are an example. When it was learned that the number of injuries per hour increases with the length of the working day and with the absence of mechanical safeguards, it led to a demand for shorter hours, safety laws, and compulsory accident insurance. Similarly, as we begin to understand the connection between the rate of interest with booms in building, unemployment ceases to be a matter of individual responsibility and becomes a problem for business and society. This classic book, initially published in 1936, illumines a growing knowledge of controllable causes of social evils. John Maurice Clark was a long-time professor of economics at Columbia University. The editors of this volume Moses Abramovitz and Eli Ginzberg were both students of Clark, and prepared this volume under his direct supervision.

Clark, John Maurice was born in 1884.
Bachelor of Arts Amherst College, 1905. Master of Arts, Doctor of Philosophy Columbia University, 1906,1910.
Son of John Bates Clark and his successor in the search for an understanding of the dynamic elements in economics. Despite his thorough acquaintance with the techniques of abstract analysis, he chose to express his arguments in purely verbal terms. His interests ranged widely within economics and he published on the business
cycle (inventing the acceleration principle), economic costs of war, public works, the labour market and many other topics.
The chief problem to which he addressed himself was the implications of competition on welfare and public policy.
He considered perfect competition both theoretically and practically unattainable and sought to distinguish it from a realistic concept of ‘workable competition’. Association Professor of Economics, Amherst, Massachusetts, 1910-1915.
Professor, University Chicago, 1915-1926. Professor of Economics, Columbia University, 1926-1957.
