Stuart Nagel

Stuart Nagel

Stuart S. Nagel (1934–2001) was Professor Emeritus of Political Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Born in West Rogers Park, Chicago, he attended Senn High School and Central YMCA High School at his hometown. Later he completed his undergraduate and graduate studies at Northwestern University, receiving a Ph.D. in Political Science in 1961.

Well-known by having coined the terms "super-optimizing" and "win-win analysis", he advanced the boundaries of policy studies.After his unexpected death on November 18, 2001, at the age of 67, the Policy Studies Journal published, in 2003, a series of articles about Mr. Nagel's personal and academic life, entitled Symposium in Honor of Stuart S. Nagel.

On September 13, 2007 Professor Emeritus Robert Weissberg wrote in an article entitled The Hidden Impact Of Political Correctness that Stuart committed suicide partially because of an anonymous accusation of racism and workplace violence that resulted in an internal investigation and two federal trials.
