Comment on William J. Novak
William J. Novak's engaging historiography is at once a recovery project and a prolegomenon to a revised history of political economy. His article chronicles the achievements of Progressive Era institutional economists and critiques the way they have been obscured by the shadow of the Chicago School of economics. Why do the Progressives deserve to be recovered and remembered? According to Novak, it is because they “underwrote one of the more fundamental governmental revolutions in modern times” and created the foundations for the “social control of business” (pp. 676, 672).

Reputation and Social Ties: J. P. Morgan & Co. and Private Investment Banking
Focusing on the private investment bank of J. P. Morgan & Co., this article examines the unique perspective that the history of private investment banking offers the study of reputation with regard to the role of social ties. Drawing from a larger study that looks at intersecting social and economic networks of New York private bankers before the Second World War, the article studies the ways in which the Morgan partners' social networks worked to maintain their reputation by creating an institutional structure for firm cohesion, establishing access to information and resources outside the firm, and fostering a culture of exclusivity that signaled the firm's standing and its ties relative to their competitors or other elite bankers.

INTRODUCTION
By disregarding mimesis in its classical form as the imitation (re-presentation) of reality, the epistemological stance assumed by the field approaches these imitations with the security of engaging with an empirical reality. Since the apparatus of representation drops out of reckoning, the \"bodies\" of Asian American knowledge, of fictional characters, historical actors, authors, and ethnographic subjects, appear to refer to or speak for themselves, and thus the forms of their specific expressions are taken as self-evident. Since Lye treats the novel and memoir as \"alternative narrative strategies of representing the Asian American character\" instead of antimonies, her contrapuntal reading shows not only how literature supplements history by constructing a post-1965 Asian American professional middle-class subject but also how history supplements literature in an \"epistemology of racial formation.\"
