Arcadius Kahan (1920-1982) was a 20th-century economic historian and Professor at the University of Chicago. Arcadius was author of Russi…an Economic History, The Nineteenth Century as well as The Plow the Hammer and the Knout The latter book presents his explanation of the foundation in the Eighteenth Century of the Russian economy and power structure. After escaping from war-torn Europe, he joined the Economics faculty at the University of Chicago in 1955. There, he won the confidence of Milton Friedman with his work on the economic effects of the persecution of Jews in 19th century Russia. Kahan concluded that this had a significant impact on Russia's economic backwardness, particularly as compared with western Europe. He argued that this was an example of dysfunctional governmental interference in the economy, which drew on the methodology of the neoliberals in the Chicago school.
