Frank E. Seidman Distinguished Award in Political Economy

Permanent URI for this collection

The Frank E. Seidman Distinguished Award in Political Economy was established in memory of Frank E. Seidman by Mr. and Mrs. P.K. Seidman of Memphis. Mr. Frank Seidman was very interested in the areas of mutual concern to both economists and political scientists. The field of political economy is increasingly recognized as a well-defined discipline for study and research. The monetary award was given to an economist or social scientist who distinguished himself or herself internationally by contributing to the advancement of economic thought along interdisciplinary lines and to its implementation through public policy. The award, recognized as international in scope, seeks to honor those who have advanced general understanding of the roles of democratic values, public institutions, government policies, private enterprises, and free markets in promoting economic well-being and social welfare.
