heterodox econ job advert

["Lee, Frederic" <leefs@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear Colleague,

The UMKC Economics Department has a job opening for someone who is
really interested in community development and urban economics--the job
advert is below.  Given the heterodox nature of the department and our
graduate programs, we welcome all heterodox economics who are qualified
to apply for the position.  If you have any questions please e-mail me.

Because the administration was so late in approving the advert, it will
not appear in JOE; so if you know of any heterodox economist who might
be interested in applying for the position, please forward the advert on
to them.
