He is also adjunct professor of Philosophy and Classics there, and for five years was a visiting Professor of philosophy at Erasmus University, Rotterdam.

Career

McCloskey speaking in 2015 in Washington, D.C.

McCloskey earned his undergraduate and graduate degrees in Economics at Harvard University. His dissertation, supervised by Alexander Gerschenkron,[4] on British iron and steel won in 1973 the David A. Wells Prize.[5]

In 1968, McCloskey became an assistant professor of economics at the University of Chicago, where he stayed for 12 years, gaining tenure as an associate professor in economics in 1975, and an associate professorship in history in 1979. His work at Chicago is marked by his contribution to the cliometric revolution in economic history, and teaching generations of leading economists Chicago Price Theory, a course which culminated in his book The Applied Theory of Price.[6] In 1979, at the suggestion of Wayne Booth in English at Chicago, he turned to the study of rhetoric in economics. Later at the University of Iowa, McCloskey, the John Murray Professor of Economics and of History (1980–99), published The Rhetoric of Economics (1985) and co-founded with John S. Nelson, Allan Megill, and others an institution and graduate program, the Project on Rhetoric of Inquiry.[7] McCloskey has authored 16 books and nearly 400 articles in her many fields.[8]

His major contributions have been to the economic history of Britain (19th-century trade, modern history, and medieval agriculture), the quantification of historical inquiry (cliometrics), the rhetoric of economics, the rhetoric of the human sciences, economic methodology, virtue ethics, feminist economics, heterodox economics, the role of mathematics in economic analysis, and the use (and misuse) of significance testing in economics, and, in his trilogy "The Bourgeois Era,"[9] the origins of the Industrial Revolution.

Bourgeois Era

His book The Bourgeois Virtues: Ethics for an Age of Commerce[10] was the first of a planned series of books about the world since the Industrial Revolution -- the Bourgeois Era -- and was published in 2006. McCloskey argued that the bourgeoisie, contrary to its self-advertised faith in prudence only, believes in all Seven virtues.

The second, Bourgeois Dignity: Why Economics Can't Explain the Modern World was published in 2010, and argued that the unprecedented increase in human welfare of the 19th and 20th centuries, from three dollars per capita per day to over 100 dollars per day, issued not from capitalist accumulation but from innovation.

The third, Bourgeois Equality: How Ideas, Not Capital or Institutions, Enriched the World appeared in 2016.[9] McCloskey expanded his argument, coining the term "Great Enrichment" to describe the unprecedented gains in human welfare of the 19th and 20th centuries. He reiterated his argument that the enrichment came from innovation and not from accumulation as argued by many from Karl Marx to Thomas Piketty.

Personal life

McCloskey is the eldest child of Robert G. McCloskey (professor), a professor of government at Harvard University, and the former Helen Stueland, a poet.

Married for thirty years and the parent of two children, he transitioned from male to female in 1995, at the age of 53, writing about his experience in a New York Times Notable Book of the Year, Crossing: A Memoir (1999, University of Chicago Press).[11] It is an account of his growing recognition of his female identity, and his transition—both surgical and social—into a woman (including his reluctant divorce from his wife). The book describes his new life, following sex-reassignment surgery, continuing his career as a female academic economist.

McCloskey advocates on behalf of the rights of persons and organizations in the LGBT community.[12] He was also a key person in the Blanchard, Bailey, and Lawrence theory controversy and in the debate over J. Michael Bailey's book The Man Who Would Be Queen, both regarding the reasons why transsexual women desire a male to female transformation.[13]

McCloskey has described himself as a "literary, quantitative, postmodern, free-market, progressive Episcopalian, Midwestern woman from Boston who was once a man. Not 'conservative'! I'm a Christian libertarian."[14]
