Abstract
Robert (Bob) Rowthorn has worked throughout his career as a political economist, addressing key questions in both economic and social policy, following a fine old Cambridge tradition. Rowthorn is a gifted mathematician and a distinguished econometrician, but has used these skills to examine practical policy questions rather than to simply display technical prowess in abstruse areas of theory. He has considered a very wide range of issues such as inflation, unemployment, regional development both globally and within the UK, marriage, immigration, and the emergence of trust and altruism. One of the key themes of the Cambridge School is the emphasis which it has placed on the distribution of income between labour and capital, and this has been the inspiration for Rowthorn’s major works on macroeconomics.
