Douglas Fitzgerald Dowd (December 7, 1919 – September 8, 2017)[1] [2] was an American political economist, economic historian and political activist.
Academic career [ edit ]
From the late 1940s to the late 1990s, Dowd taught at Cornell University , the University of California, Berkeley and other universities. He has authored books that criticize capitalism in general, and US capitalism in particular.
He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in the field of economic history for the academic year 1959–1960.[3]
Many of his writings and audio transcripts are available on his website.[4]
Personal life [ edit ]
Dowd was the son of a Jewish mother and a Catholic father. The strong dislike for each side of the family for the other side led him during his youth to embrace an antireligious attitude.[5]
Dowd claimed to be "non-religious" without saying if he was an agnostic or atheist .
Politics [ edit ]
Dowd was one of the nominees of the Peace and Freedom Party for Vice President in the 1968 US presidential election . He agreed to be on the ticket in New York in order to prevent the selection of Jerry Rubin .[6] The party's presidential candidate that year was Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver , who finished a distant fifth in the election.
Dowd was a sponsor of the War Tax Resistance project, which practiced and advocated tax resistance as a form of protest against the Vietnam War.[7]
Dowd was the faculty sponsor of the West Tennessee Voters Project in Fayette County, Tennessee, that inspired a sizable number of Cornell students to become more active in civil rights work in the South one year after the gruesome murder of Andrew Goodman , Michael Schwerner and James Chaney in Philadelphia, Mississippi.
