Sir Arnold Plant (29 April 1898 – 19 April 1978) was a British economist.[1][2][3]

Biography

Plant was born in Hoxton, London, the son of a municipal librarian, William Charles Plant, and Thomasine Emily Plant.[4][5] After attending Strand School, he worked for a mechanical engineering organisation. At the advice of William Piercy, he set out to learn about management. He obtained a BCom degree (1922) and a BSc degree in Economics (1923; specialising in modern economic history) from the London School of Economics.[5]

He worked as a professor at the University of Cape Town (1923–1930) and at the London School of Economics (1930–1965).[1]

Plant's 1934 paper on patents, "The Economic Theory Concerning Patents for Inventions",[6] is considered a classic.[7]

In 1947, he was knighted.[1][8] He died in 1978. His widow, Edith, Lady Plant, died a decade later.[9]
