In memoriam Hilary Putnam

We note with much sadness the passing of Hilary Putnam, a wide-ranging philosopher and HDCA Fellow who gave a keynote address at our annual meeting in New York (2007).  Having worked with Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum at the World Institute for Development Economics Research, he has fine articles in The Quality of Life and Women, Culture, and Development.  He will be greatly missed. A tribute to Putnam by Martha Nussbaum has appeared in the Huffington Post:  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/martha-c-nussbaum/hilary-putnam-19292016_b_9457774.html.
