Scott Nearing, 1915

Scott Nearing ( August 6, 1883 – August 24, 1983 ) was an American radical economist, educator, writer, political activist, and advocate of simple living.

Nearing's grandfather, Winfield Scott Nearing, had arrived in Tioga County with his family in 1864, at the age of 35, when he accepted a job as a civil and mining engineer.

In his memoirs written late in his life, Scott Nearing would recall his grandfather as one of the four most influential figures in his life.

Despite an upbringing in a life of privilege made possible at some level by the harsh anti-union politics of his patriarchal grandfather, young Scott Nearing nevertheless developed a social conscience, which one of his biographers describes as " a burr under his skin that none of his relatives acquired and that no interpretation satisfactorily explains.

" Retrospectively called by one historian " the most famous breach of academic freedom " of the era, the University of Pennsylvania's action had the effect of making Scott Nearing into a public figure and fueled a long-running discussion about the proper role and rights of the teacher.

Nearing and his first wife, Nellie Marguerite Seeds Nearing, were the parents of John Scott, who wrote a participant's account of having worked in industry in the Soviet Union during the 1930s.

In the winter of 1956 – 57, Scott and Helen Nearing toured Canada, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Europe, generating a book about their experiences called Socialists Around the World.

The following winter, with their passports issued in 1956 nearing expiration, Scott and Helen Nearing embarked upon a trip through the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China.

In the wake of their travels to the USSR and China, Scott Nearing seems to have drawn somewhat closer once again to the Communist Party, whose official publishing house, New Century Publishers, produced Nearing pamphlets on Eastern Europe and Cuba in 1962 and 1963.
