Line 13:
Blocked from academic promotion, most likely due to his left-leaning politics, he went on to work in a number of jobs in journalism, public relations, advertising and film criticism in England, Switzerland and France. He lost his U.S. citizenship due to absence from the USA and was denied a passport by the British Home Office, even as late as the 1970s, presumably to due the McCarthy-era accusations. His British passport was never restored to him, and the accusations continued to hound him throughout the 1950s.
In 1958, he was recruited as Economic Advisor to the [[Central Bank of Ceylon]], returning to the U.K. in 1961. Shortly thereafter, he became, as Michael Green, assistant editor and then chief editor of The Banker, a monthly professional journal published by the Financial Times of London. He later became Chief Economist at the London stockbroking company De Zoete & Bevan. He commented that in the City of London most people shared the Marxist analysis of capitalism that he had learned in Cambridge in the 1930s, but that they were, by contrast, quite content with the implicit inequalities.
His obituary appeared in the London Times and the Independent. He was survived by his wife and three sons.
