Emeritus Prof Christopher MayFeb 22

There's been little acknowledgement but Susan George (political scientist as Wikipedia have it, or political economist, as I would prefer) passed on 14th February. I've seen no obituaries, but here is her Wikipedia entry which included the long list of her excellent & insightful books... many of which were always on my reading lists

I'm sure the lack of obits has nothing to do with her being a women or a critique of global capitalism. /s
