Arthur Cecil Pigou (18 November 1877 – 7 March 1959) was an English economist.
Pigou's most enduring contribution was The Economics of Welfare, 1920, in which he introduced the concept of externality and the idea that externality problems could be corrected by the imposition of a Pigovian tax (also spelled "Pigouvian tax").
