LONG CITATION
John Loxley is perhaps Canada's leading critical economist who has spent his career critiquing the impact of orthodox economic policies and institutions on the poor in developing countries and in Canada, and developing alternative proposals for more equitable economic approaches. For many years he has analyzed monetary systems in Africa and proposed reforms to promote national or socialist aspirations. His work on the theory, design, and implementation of IMF/World Bank structural adjustment programs is recognized internationally. His writing on community and Aboriginal economic development in Canada, and the preparation of alternative budgets oriented toward the poor, the environment, and women, has also been widely influential.
