Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics

FOUR YEAR REPORT, JULY 1, 1992 – JUNE 30, 1996

Yale University

1. INTRODUCTION

The Cowles Commission for Research in Economics was founded in 1932 by Alfred Cowles in collaboration with a group of economists, mathematicians, and statisticians, all of whom were concerned with applying quantitative techniques to economics and related social sciences. As the original Articles of Incorporation explained, "said corporation is formed ... to educate and benefit its members and mankind, and to advance the scientific study and development ... of economic theory in its relation to mathematics and statistics." The Cowles Commission was formally chartered as a not-for-profit corporation in Colorado on September 9, 1932. In 1939 it relocated to the University of Chicago and then, in 1955, moved to Yale University where it was renamed The Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics at Yale University.

The Cowles Foundation today continues to pursue its basic mission of fostering the development of logical, mathematical, and statistical methods of analysis for application in economics and related social sciences. The field of economics has developed and changed dramatically over the last 60-plus years, since the Cowles Commission was founded. The changes, particularly as to the methods of analysis deployed, reflect in part the success of the Commission and similar research organizations in developing and disseminating new quantitative techniques. As economics has changed, so has the scope of inquiry at Cowles and the breadth of research interests of the research staff.

The Cowles Foundation's purpose remains to conduct and encourage the highest quality research in quantitative economics and related subjects. The Foundation's contributions to high quality research in quantitative economics and cognate areas emerges from the sum of the efforts of individual staff members, sometimes working in groups and sometimes working with individual graduate students. There are definite clusters of strength among the research staff — econometrics, mathematical economics, macroeconomics, and macroeconomic theory — and the research product reflects these strengths.

In pursuing its scholarly objective, the Cowles Foundation supports a research staff, maintains a research library, sponsors a series of workshops and seminars, and disseminates the results of research in a set of publications. The Foundation’s governing body is its Executive Committee, whose members are Yale faculty appointed by the Provost (not all from the membership of the research staff and not all from Economics). The Director serves as Chair of the Executive Committee. The administrative offices and library of the Cowles Foundation are housed at 30 Hillhouse Avenue.

2. RESEARCH PERSONNEL

The members of the Cowles Foundation Research Staff are all members of the faculty at Yale University. Currently, almost all staff members hold appointments in the Department of Economics. Several people on the staff are also members of the faculty of other departments (for example, Statistics) and schools (for example, the Law School and the School of Management). Table 1 lists all faculty who were members of the research staff for some period during the preceding four academic years 1992–93, 1993–94, 1994–95, and 1995–96.

In addition to the members of the research staff, the Cowles Foundation also invites scholars from other universities, both in the U.S. and abroad, to visit for various periods of time. Visitors usually come for a semester or a year, and most often they will do some teaching, usually in the Economics Department, but recently at least once in Statistics. Sometimes, however, an individual whose research is of particular interest to a group of staff members cannot come for a semester or longer, and we may have that person come for a shorter stay. Our office capacity to accommodate visitors is limited so that in selecting visitors we give strong weight to the externalities the researcher offers to ongoing projects. Table 2 contains a list of scholars who have visited Cowles for a semester or more during the last four academic years.

3. THE LIBRARY

The Cowles Foundation Library is a great asset. It contains more than 7,000 volumes, to which we add about 50–75 books a year. We maintain subscriptions to more than 160 journals. (In addition, there are partial sets of about 40 now-discontinued journal titles.) Although hardcopy working paper series may go the way of the dinosaurs, as they are replaced by on-line access, we currently receive about 175 different series of discussion papers. The library also serves as the repository for Cowles discussion papers, reprints, and monographs, as well as for Cowles archival material. The library, which is staffed by a full-time librarian with bursary student assistance, is available for use by the Yale University community. Its principal clientele, however, is the set of faculty members and graduate students in the Department of Economics. The books in the library circulate, except for a few that are essentially kept on closed reserve because they are frequently used in courses. Journals do not circulate but can be taken for one hour to enable photocopying of an article.

4. MEETINGS

We generally hold Cowles Foundation Seminars once a month. A scholar from another institution is invited to present a paper. Because the audience represents a wide range of interests, we make a particular effort to attract people who are good expositors as well as high-quality researchers. These seminars are well attended not only by members of the research staff and other faculty but by graduate students as well. Table 3 provides a list of the Cowles Foundation Seminars that were presented during the past four academic years.

The Cowles Foundation also provides financial support for several specialized workshops and seminars of the Department of Economics — namely, the Econometrics Research Seminar, the Macroeconomics Workshop, and the Microeconomic Theory Workshop. The Foundation also provides support, through its Program on Discrete Mathematics and Its Applications, for a seminar series in Computer Science that attracts numerous people working in this area of research and that Herb Scarf and László Lovász regularly attend.

The Cowles Foundation is honored to present the Tjalling C. Koopmans Memorial Lecture Series. These lectures were made possible by a special, generous gift from Truus W. Koopmans to Cowles to honor Professor Koopmans’s memory. We use these lectures to bring to Yale leading scholars who are working at the frontiers of areas in which Koopmans, who represented to many the quintessence of the Cowles Foundation, was interested. Three Koopmans Memorial Lectures were presented during the period July 1992–June 1996. They were as follows:

5. PUBLICATIONS

Several publication series disseminate the results of research undertaken at the Cowles Foundation. The first is the set of Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers (CFDPs), our working paper series. These papers are manuscripts that are usually about to be submitted or have just been submitted for publication. They are distributed both within Yale and to a more global set of institutions and interested researchers. The goal is to make new results known early to the research community as well as to generate feedback and comments for the author.

The second series is composed of the Cowles Foundation Papers (CFPs); these are reprints of published articles and contributions to books.
