Sites about Persons ; au Primary Texts ; q61 Walter Bagehot was an English journalist and closely associated with the English institutionalist-historicist tradition. He was one of the early editors of the famous and influential "Manchester School" and the newspaper "The Economist". Bagehot was not avidly opposed to contemporary Classical economics, but he stressed the need for more institutional content - especially cultural and social factors. He was one of the first economists to discuss the concept of the business cycle. Bagehot also developed a distinct theory of central banking. On this site one can find links to his works online, a time-line and additional links to further resources on the web.
