Christopher Houghton Budd

Christopher Houghton Budd was born in England. He left school at 16, and then spent his youth traveling, working on private yachts, and learning the film business in California. He spent 1968 in Berkeley, where he developed a strong interest in Marxist ideas, but became convinced that Marx had failed to interpret his vision accurately. Prior to this time he had also met the work of Rudolf Steiner, whose contributions to sociology and economics have been of special interest to him ever since. For two decades, Dr. Houghton Budd initiated or participated in a variety of small and mostly “green” businesses in such fields as farming, housing, food distribution, retailing, and investment. He served for seven years as a local councilor (mostly as chair) and four as a state school governor. He works as a freelance writer, publisher, and consultant and leads workshops around the world. His particular focus is on the development of associative economics, an approach to economics that combines financial discipline with active social responsibility on the part of human beings. Christopher Houghton Budd edits and publishes a bimonthly journal for associative economics and is a founding member of the Associative Economics Network. He holds a degree in economic history from the University of Sussex, where he focused on the Bank of England, and a Ph.D. in banking from Cass Business School, London, where his thesis dealt with the changing relationship between central banking and the financial markets. He is married with one child and has a strong interest in gardening and architecture. Visit the Centre for Associative Economics website.
