Expertise: Property rights, natural resource and environmental policy
Terry Anderson, the John and Jean DeNault Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, is the executive director of PERC—the Property and Environment Research Center—a think tank in Bozeman, Montana, that focuses on market solutions to environmental problems, and professor emeritus at Montana State University. His work helped launch the idea of free market environmentalism and has prompted public debate over the balance between markets and government in managing natural resources. Anderson is the author or editor of thirty books. Among these, Free Market Environmentalism, which was coauthored with Donald Leal, received the 1992 Sir Antony Fisher International Memorial Award. A revised edition was published in 2001. Other books include Property Rights: Cooperation, Conflict, and Law, coedited with Fred S. McChesney (Princeton University Press, 2003), Property Rights: A Practical Guide to Freedom and Prosperity (Hoover Institution Press, 2003), and You Have to Admit It's Getting Better: From Economic Prosperity to Environmental Quality (Hoover Institution Press). His most recent book, with Peter J. Hill, The Not So Wild, Wild West: Property Rights on the Frontier (Stanford University Press), was awarded the 2005 Sir Antony Fisher International Memorial Award, and a coedited volume on Self-Determination: The Other Path for Native Americans will be published by Stanford University Press in 2006. Anderson has published widely in both professional journals and the popular press, including the Wall Street Journal, the Christian Science Monitor, and Fly Fisherman. Anderson received his B.S. degree from the University of Montana in 1968 and his Ph.D. degree in economics from the University of Washington in 1972, after which he began his teaching career at Montana State University, where he won several teaching awards. Anderson is an avid outdoorsman who enjoys fishing, hiking, canoeing, and archery hunting, especially in Africa. |
