ABOUT THE AUTHORS

Paul Krugman, recipient of the 2008 Nobel

Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences, taught at

Princeton University for 14 years and, as of June

2015, he will have joined the faculty of the Graduate

Center of the City University of New York. In

his new position, he is associated with the Luxembourg

Income Study, which tracks and analyzes

income inequality around the world. He received

his BA from Yale and his PhD from MIT. Before

Princeton, he taught at Yale, Stanford, and MIT.

He also spent a year on the staff of the Council of

Economic Advisers in 1982–1983. His research has

included pathbreaking work on international trade,

economic geography, and currency crises. In 1991,

Krugman received the American Economic Association’s John Bates Clark

medal. In addition to his teaching and academic research, Krugman writes

extensively for nontechnical audiences. He is a regular op-ed columnist for

the New York Times. His best-selling trade books include End This Depression

Now!, The Return of Depression Economics and the Crisis of 2008, a history of

recent economic troubles and their implications for economic policy, and The

Conscience of a Liberal, a study of the political economy of economic inequality

and its relationship with political polarization from the Gilded Age to the

present. His earlier books, Peddling Prosperity and The Age of Diminished

Expectations, have become modern classics.
