Karl William Kapp
Karl William Kapp (October 27, 1910 – April 4, 1976) was a German-American economist and professor of economics at the City University of New York and later the University of Basel.

He is regarded as a foundational thinker in the development of social ecological economics. Biography Kapp was born in Königsberg in 1910 as son of August Wilhelm Kapp, who was a te ...
