Athanasios Asimakopulos
Athanasios "Tom" Asimakopulos () (May 28, 1930 – May 25, 1990) was a Canadian economist, who was the "William Dow Professor of Political Economy" in the Department of Economics, McGill University, Montreal, Canada. His monograph, ''Keynes's General Theory and Accumulation'', reviews important areas of Keynes's ''General Theory'' and the theories of accumulation of two of his most distinguished followers, Roy Harrod and Joan Robinson.〔Asimakopulos, Athanasios.

==Biography==
Asimakopulos was born in Montreal in 1930. He was educated at McGill University earning a B.A. in 1951 and an M.A. in 1953. In September 1953 Tom went to Cambridge; his research topic was a three-commodity, three-country study in international trade theory entitled ''Productivity Changes, the Trade Balance and the Terms of Trade''.〔Asimakopulos, A. (''A Note on Productivity Changes and the Terms of Trade'' ). Oxford Economic Papers, New Series, Vol. 9, No. 2 (Jun., 1957), pp. 225–233.〕 With his classmate Keith Frearson, the Australian economist, Tom went to Joan Robinson's lectures on what would become ''The Accumulation of Capital''〔Robinson, Joan. (''The Accumulation of Capital'' ). London: Macmillan Company, 1965. First published 1956.〕 – Robinson's ''magnum opus'', which sought to extend Keynes's theory to account for long-run issues of growth and capital accumulation. Initially Asimakopulos was irritated by Robinson's criticisms of the orthodox theories of value and distribution and neoclassical methodology on which he had been brought up. Asimakopulos also went regularly to research students's seminars run by Piero Sraffa, Robin Marris, and Nicholas Kaldor.
Asimakopulos was a Lecturer in Economics and Political Science from 1956 to 1957 at McGill. From 1957 to 1959 he worked as an Assistant Professor at the Royal Military College. In 1959 he returned to McGill and became an assistant professor, working close to J.C. Weldon. Promoted to the position of associate professor in 1963, he became a full professor in 1966. In 1988 he was appointed ''"William Dow Professor of Political Economy"'' on Weldon's vacancy. He served as Chairman of the Department of Economics from 1974 to 1978. Teaching was his top priority; Asimakopulos loved teaching the microeconomics course to the Honours Students at McGill. Even though he had an assistant, Asimakopulos made sure that, from time to time, he gave tutorials himself, on which he would emphasize, ''ad nauseam'' the importance of the ''assumptions'' of the analysis and its implications on the results of the theoretical model studied. He wrote extensively on the work of such economic theorists as J. M. Keynes, Joan Robinson, and Michał Kalecki. He was active in many professional associations and organizations. He held numerous fellowships and was a Visiting Professor and a Fellow at universities in the United States, England and Australia. From 1976 to 1990 he was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada.
Athanasios Asimakopulos died of leukemia in 1990.〔
