Kliman is evidently a notableeconomist, if anything as the author of a modern seminal work.[1][2] The subject meets the criteria required by the pertinent rule, i.e. the person is regarded as an important figure and widely cited by peers or successors; he created a work that's been the subject of independent articles and reviews. -The Gnome (talk) 22:00, 1 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
Andrew Kliman is not a notableeconomist, and the book "Reclaiming Marx's 'Capital'" is not a seminal work in the field. He has not received any top awards or other honors in the field, and has not been the subject of any press coverage. The referenced quotations above are typical academic book reviews, the likes of which any academic book (notable or not) would receive. This person does not pass the professor test. --2604:2000:B093:AE00:4143:2670:A98:7D01 (talk) 19:45, 14 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
According to rules, Wikipedia considers someone a notable individual if, among other requirements, "The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources". Further specifications indicate that "Criterion 1 can also be satisfied if the person has pioneered or developed a significant new concept, technique or idea, made a significant discovery or solved a major problem in their academic discipline. In this case it is necessary to explicitly demonstrate, by a substantial number of references to academic publications of researchers other than the person in question, that this contribution is indeed widely considered to be significant and is widely attributed to the person in question.". Kliman and McGlone are two of the originators of the Temporal Single System Interpretation, which is an interpretation of Marx's theory of value. I think that fulfills the criteria. 193.145.201.52 (talk) 07:57, 3 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
