| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This joint-research project was designed to shed light on the beginning and early development of teaching of political economy in higher education institutions in England and India. The focus of research was placed on the East India College (Haileybury College), where Thomas Robert Malthus held the first professorship in political economy from 1805, and after his death, Richard Jones succeeded, and the University of Oxford, where, on the foundation of the professorship of political economy in 1825, Nassau William Senior was appointed to it. A few decades later in the mid-nineteenth century, teaching of political economy was launched in schools and universities in India. An example is Elphinstone Institution, where Mahadev Govind Ranade, the father of Indian economics, was taught British classical political economy. This made another object of this research project.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究は広義の経済学史研究であるが，従来から主流をなしている経済理論史研究，経済思想史研究とは一線を画した経済学の制度化の研究である．より具体的には，高等教育機関における経済学教育の成立の経緯および教育内容に着目し，経済学がディシプリンとして確立されていくのと並行して，いかにサブジェクトとして定着してきたのか，その過程を明らかにしようとしたものである．研究対象は経済学の母国と言えるイギリスと，その影響下にあった植民地インドの高等教育機関である．
