Economic Theorists
Economists
Click on the names to access a short biographical sketch of that
Economist. You can find a more detailed (and often ideologically suffused)
description of many of the following economists in my "Interesting
Websites" section. I have used a wide array of resources in writing the
following biographies and am unsure as to the appropriate method of
citation for work on the web. Since I feel it would detract from the work
to cite my resources on each entry, I have cited all of my resources at
the bottom of the page.
