Kris Feder at Bard, and who occasionally does a Levy pub., is also a Georgist,
or Geoeconomist. She's brought Gaffney there a few times. Ingrid Rima, who
supervised Feder's diss. also is interested, I think--I wouldn't be surprised if
her History of Thought text had a more than usual amount on him. Jay Levy also
actually has an interest in George as well, though he's not a card-carrying
member by any means. The American Journal of Economics and Sociology, sponsored
by the Robert Schellenbach (sp?) Foundation, also has an "interest" in George.
You can find many articles related to Georgian economics in the AJES over the
years.

I understand that there are Georgians [followers of Henry G.] who argue
that in practice _all_ taxes end up being paid by owners of naturally
scarce resources in the end. One or two used to be at the University of
California-Riverside (Mason Gaffney being one).
