Mason Gaffney, Ph.D. is an American economist and a major critic of Neoclassical economics from a Georgist point of view. He has been Professor of Economics at the University of California, Riverside since 1976. Gaffney first read Henry George's masterwork Progress and Poverty as a high school junior. After he served in the southwest Pacific during World War II, this interest led him to get a Ph.D. in Economics at University of California, Berkeley. There he tried to meet his teachers' skepticism about Georgism with a dissertation entitled "Land Speculation as an Obstacle to Ideal Allocation of Land."
