Resourceship
In Capitalism at Work, containing a history of energy thought, and under the tutelage of Institutional economist Tom DeGregori of the University of Houston and Pierre Desrochers, I discovered Erich Zimmermann and put his ideas on the intellectual map. Stated Troy Vettese:[1]
“Though he draws a different intellectual genealogy than this article, credit must go to Robert Bradley Jr. for highlighting the influence of Zimmermann on neoliberal thought. See his essay “Resourceship: An Austrian Theory of Mineral Resources,” Review of Austrian Economics 20, no. 1 (2007): 63—90. Notably Bradley, Thomas DeGregori, and Zimmermann all studied or worked at Texas universities at some point. See also Thomas DeGregori, “Resources Are Not; They Become: An Institutional Theory,” Journal of Economic Issues 21, no. 3 (1987): 1241-63
