Andrew Glyn, perhaps the leading leftwing economist in the UK for the
past 30 years, died on December 22 aged 64, shortly after the diagnosis
of a brain tumour.
In his influential first book with Bob Sutcliffe, British Capitalism,
Workers and the Profits Squeeze (1972), he lifted leftwing econĀ­omics
out of sectarian Marxist theory into the langĀ­uage of modern economics
and political economy.
