“…There were no fewer than twenty such references in non-U.S. journals—well over one-quarter of the total mentions—including journals published in England (1954), Australia (1955), Italy (1956), France (1957), Sweden (1957), Germany (1958), and Argentina (1958) 34 . Nearly all of these were by non-American authors and usually in the native tongue—referring to, e.g., “die Chicago schule” (Schneider 1959, p. 71) and “l’école de Chicago” (James 1960, p. 487)—which further reinforces the conclusion that the notion of a “school” of economists at Chicago was spreading internationally.…”

Though the Chicago school has been the subject of no small amount of research over the past several decades, that scholarship has focused largely on persons, ideas, and influence—in short, on the school itself. No attention has been paid to the origins of that label and the avenues via which the notion of a “Chicago school” of economics came to be. This paper attempts to address that lacuna, drawing on both published and archival resources. What emerges is a story of a label of uncertain origin but wrapped up in competing agendas, the first stage in the history of which culminates in 1962 with its rejection by two of the very people who helped birth it.
