I would like to nominate Professor James Ahiakpor for the position of
"Last of the Classical Economists." This honorific title recognizes
James's stalwart and unceasing insistence that all monetary theorizing
since the classical era of Hume, Smith, Thornton, Ricardo, and others
has been a snare and a delusion, a retrogression not an advance. It
honors James for never saying die, for never admitting defeat, for
always pressing on, and for keeping alive the flame of classical
monetary theory in this age of heretics, doubters, and dissenters.
