" Allais is a fountain of
original and independant discovery. Had his earliest writings been in English, a
generation of economic theory would have taken a different course". |

Allais " is the most
prominent figure in modern economic research in France as regards basic theory and
applications to public-sector planning" .... .... He is a
giant in economic theoretical analysis ...
.... He's been under consideration for a long time. [...] It took a
long time to investigate him because of the great volume and complexity of his
works".

[ His basic research ] "has had a farereaching indirect
impact through younger French economists who have been strongly influenced by his
work," ... " There was total unity in the committee and great
enthusiasm over the choice," ....

"Mr Allais work, especially two massive tracts
published in 1943 and 1947, is "parallel" to research published about same time
by Mr Samuelson and Sir John Hicks,".... "Mr Allais research
into state monopolies was still relevant, despite the recent trend toward privatizing
state-owned companies, particularly in France and Britain.".... |
