Academic Work
A founder of the Revue d'économie politique in 1887, Gide was a proponent of the French historical approach to economics.
Gide was one of the few supporters of Léon Walras, as they shared a social philosophy, social activism, and disdain for the "Manchester-style" economics of the journalistes. Gide later resisted the influence of Keynesian economics in France.
The Charles Gide Association for the History of Economic Thought website, in French, is at http://www.charlesgide.fr. In keeping with Gide's views, the association is free of any exclusive doctrinal, theoretical or epistemological bias.

Famous quotes containing the words academic and/or work:
“You know lots of criticism is written by characters who are very academic and think it is a sign you are worthless if you make jokes or kid or even clown. I wouldn’t kid Our Lord if he was on the cross. But I would attempt a joke with him if I ran into him chasing the money changers out of the temple.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“...I still have faith occasionally in the brotherhood of man, and in spite of all the tragedies that have intervened since [1945], believe that sometime, somehow, all the nations of the world can work together for the common good.”
—Virginia Crocheron Gildersleeve (1877–1965)
