David Philippy is a historian of economics currently serving as Fellow-in-Residence at CY Advanced Studies (CY AS), invited by the AGORA research group. He additionally holds an associate membership at the Walras-Pareto Center, University of Lausanne.
His research specializes in the historical emergence of consumption economics in early 20th-century America, focusing on how female economists and home economists established this field when mainstream economics neglected household consumption. He critically examines Hazel Kyrk's 1923 Theory of Consumption as a foundational text that structured subsequent intellectual debates, highlighting women's contributions at disciplinary frontiers.
Dr. Philippy is affiliated with the AGORA research group at CY AS and the Walras-Pareto Center in Lausanne, both interdisciplinary institutes dedicated to advancing historical and theoretical research in economic science.
