The William Alonso Memorial Prize for Innovative Work in Regional Science
The William Alonso Memorial Prize for Innovative Work in Regional Science was established in 1999. The objective of the Prize is to recognize the recent innovative research contribution of Regional Science scholars in the spirit of Dr. William Alonso. The Prize is awarded biennially to one or more scholars who have published innovative academic work (in English language). The First Alonso Prize was awarded to Masahisa Fujita and Paul Krugman in 2002; the second Alonso Prize was awarded to Jacques-François Thisse in 2004. Luc Anselin and Ann Markusen shared the third Alonso Prize awarded in November 2006 in Toronto, Ontario.
Any member of RSAI may nominate a scholar who has produced one or more eligible works during the recent past. The nomination will be accompanied by a short statement concerning the reasons of nomination as well as the nominated academic work itself. Nomination for the Alonso Prize should be made on or before May 15, 2007 to any of the members of the Prize Committee, which is composed as follows:
Professor Luc Anselin, Treasurer, University of Ilinois, Urbana-Champaign, anselin@uiuc.edu
Professor Amy Glasmeier, Pennsylvania State University, akg1@ems.psu.edu
Professor Andrew Isserman, Chair, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, isserman@uiuc.edu

Professor Kyung-Hwan Kim, Sogan University, kyungkim@mail.sogan.ac.kr
Any scholarly work that has been published in a refereed journal or book in the English language in the recent past, regardless of the country of residence of the author or the location of the publisher, is eligible for consideration of the Prize. Publication through the Internet will be considered if there is a refereeing process. A Ph.D. dissertation, before its publication in its entirety or in part in refereed medium, is not eligible. The recent past will be interpreted as the past 3-10 years. Selection is based on the following criteria:
- Innovativeness - The work introduces an innovative concept or an approach for understanding of human or organizational activity or behavior in space.
- Expected Impact on Future Academic Development - The extent of the impact the work will likely have on the development of the academic studies in the respective field.
- Completeness - The work should be completed as an academic work in the sense that meaningful conclusions are derived.
