Franklin "Frank" J.B. Stilwell (born 1944)[2] is an Australian political economist and Professor Emeritus. He is known for establishing, with Evan Jones, Gavan Butler, Margaret Power, Debesh Bhattacharya, Geelum Simpson-Lee and Ted Wheelwright, an independent political economy department at the University of Sydney.[3] His research interests include theories of political economy, inequality, urbanization, and regional development, Australian economic policy and the nature of work.[4] His textbooks on the subject are standard teaching material for all university students in Australia studying the field of Political Economy.[5] Stilwell's contribution to heterodox economics makes him a noteworthy figure of the Australian New Left.[6]
