Abstract

This special issue of the Review of Economic Dynamics is dedicated to the legacy of Dale T. Mortensen, one of the leading figures in economics in our lifetime. We are proud and honored to have been assigned the task of contributing some brief introductory remarks on the man and his work, as he was most assuredly an inspiration on both of our careers, and on our lives more generally. The profession has recognized his achievements with many awards, including the 2010 Nobel Prize that he shared with Peter Diamond and Christopher Pissarides. This volume contains articles by several of Dale's many friends, students, coauthors and admirers as a further tribute to his lasting contributions. It is appropriate that the papers appear here, since Dale was a President of the Society for Economic Dynamics, and instrumental in setting up the Review. (Copyright: Elsevier)
