Abstract

John Coleman Flinn 1939-1991 The community of Agricultural Economists has suffered a tragic loss with the death of John Flinn on 19th September 1991. John is part of the history of Agricultural Economics in Australia and in the broader international community. John’s contribution to the literature in applied microeconomic analysis has been both prestigious and of prodigious quality. His role in the international scene has been one of institution building and of broadening and deepening the scholarship of those with whom he had contact over 30 years. His life was a continuing process of sharpening the tools of agricul- tural economics applied to the problems of developed and developing agriculture. John held a Bachelor of Agricultural Science from Melbourne University, a Ph.D. from the University of New England and a Master of Public Administration P; t>m Harvard University. The sustained quality of John Flinn’s work is indicated by awards at either end of his academic career - for his Ph.D. he was awarded the Drummond Prize at the University of New England and for his Master’s degree in Public Administration, MPA, in 1989 he was honoured by Harvard University, one of the eleven in his graduating class of 296,
