Abstract

Mancur Olson, professor of Economics at the University of Maryland‐College Park, died February 19, 1998. He served the Southern Economic Association as a member of the Executive Committee in 1978‐80, as President‐Elect in 1980‐81, and as President in 1981‐82. Three of his colleagues, Wallace Oates, Joe Oppenheimer, and Thomas Schelling, contributed personal essays to a memorial symposium in Public Choice Studies (No. 31, 1998), a journal published in Japanese. The Editor thanks the Japan Public Choice Society for permission to publish these contributions in English for the benefit of our readers.
