The Economics and Finance Department will host a public lecture, “Heterodox Microeconomics and Real World Economic Problems,” by Frederic S. Lee, professor of economics at the University of Missouri - Kansas City, on Friday, March 2, from 11:00 to 11:50 a.m. in Bulger Communication Center North. The lecture will offer Buffalo State students, faculty, and staff an opportunity to learn an alternative theoretical perspective that is rarely taught in typical economics courses and that is relevant to a critical understanding of the ongoing economic crisis.

Lee is the editor of the American Journal of Economics and Sociology, president of the Association for Institutional Thought, founding editor of the Heterodox Economics Newsletter, and author of A History of Heterodox Economics (Routledge, 2009) and Post Keynesian Price Theory (Cambridge University Press, 1998). He has published extensively on heterodox microeconomics, on the history of economics, and on the ranking of journals and departments and their impact on heterodox economics.

This event is open to the public. For more information, contact Tae-Hee Jo, assistant professor of economics and finance.
