Abstract:
The purpose of the present paper is to bring to light to our Academiccircle the theoretical origins and contributions to economic science from the first Academic economist in Greece John Soutsos. Soutsos, is considered to be the father of the economic science in Modern Greece and the first who was systematically occupied with the theoretical problems of Greek economy. From 1837, he was appointed Professor at the University of Athens (first year of its establishment), where he taught Political Economy, continously for 53 years. Himself a student of Pelegrino Rossi in Geneva and of Jean Baptiste Say at the College of France transmitting to the Greek scientists and through them to the whole of the Greek society theoprimistic spirit of Say on the evolutiom of the capitalistic system. Thevalue of J. Soutsos's work, lies in the fact that he was the first to transplant from abroad to Greece the cultivation of theoretical economics, and who consecreated economic terminology in the country. His contribution is exceptionally importanta because in some parts of his main work Ploutology, he proceeded further than the followers of the French School - and especially of his teachers - combining the historico - institutional method with analytico - deductive. The actual importance of his two volume writing is so much greater as for many years no other remarkable work on theoretical economics appeared in Greece.
