A chapter in Modern Agricultural and Resource Economics and Policy, 2022, pp 15-36 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract As an economist, academic leader, patriot, innovator, and entrepreneur, Gordon Rausser has rooted his legacy into the global academic, governmental and private sector landscape. From his humble beginnings on a small family farm in California, Gordon served as chief and senior economist at two U.S. government agencies, designed a Canadian agricultural policy model, organized a global conference in Egypt dedicated to water resources, and was instrumental in the integration of agricultural in the Uruguay Round of the GATT negotiations. As the former dean of the College of Natural Resources, his avant-garde public-private research development agreements not only cemented the department as first in the nation but also laid the foundation for other universities throughout the U.S. to establish private-public R&D partnerships based on his template. Gordon founded a political-economic thinktank that nurtured as many as eight Nobel Prize winners as well as a major economic, financial, and statistical consulting firm that was the first to successfully orchestrate an IPO.
