Welcome to Bonnie Wilson's website - a work in progress.

Economics

I worked in higher education for many years as a full-time academic economist.  I was an assistant professor at UMBC, 1999-2003; assistant and associate professor at SLU, 2003-2025.  I now work as an independent scholar.  Most of my research is in the field of public choice and involves thinking about exchange in the spheres of politics and civil society.  I hold a PhD in economics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
