Allen V. Kneese
Allen Victor Kneese (5 April 1930, Fredericksburg, Texas - 14 March 2001) was an American economist. He was a pioneer in what came to be called environmental economics.[1] He worked at Resources for the Future from 1961 onwards. He earned a bachelor of science in economics from Southwest Texas State College in San Marcos, master's degree in economics from the University of Colorado Boulder, and a Ph.D. in 1956 from Indiana University Bloomington.[2][3]
Kneese' research focussed on the integration of environmental pollution in economic models,[3] and on the use of economic incentives to encourage environmental improvements.[4]
Kneese was the first president of the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists, and was a founding editor of the Journal of Environmental Economics and Management and Water Resources Research. With John V. Krutilla, he was the inaugural winner of the Volvo Environment Prize in 1990.[3]
