Wesley Ruttan (1924–2008) was a
well-known development economist at the University of Minnesota,
where he was Regents Professor Emeritus in the Departments of Economics and
Applied Economics. Ruttan's research focused on innovation,
technical change and productivity growth, institutions, and development
assistance policy. His book with Yujiro Hayami, Agricultural Development: An
International Perspective was considered a classic in the field and
was translated into four other languages.
Ruttan received a B.A. at Yale University in 1948, an M.A. at the University of Chicago in
1950, and a Ph.D. at the
University of Chicago in 1952.
At the University of Chicago, Ruttan studied with Theodore Schultz, who won the Nobel Memorial Prize in
Economics in 1979. Ruttan held positions earlier in his career
at the Tennessee Valley Authority, Purdue University, the President's Council of Economic
Advisors, the Rockefeller Research Institute in The Philippines, and President of
the Agricultural Development Council.
