One of the top criticisms that many economists face in the public eye lies in their inability to tell a story. The rhetoric of economists is often absent of any persuasive power, because they fail to connect with with their audience. Though the use of complicated models, statistics, and theories, can help prove that the work is valid, to get people to care there has to be a relevant story. This blog aims to bring to life the work of Nobel Prize-winning economists for students just getting interested and for those in the field that need to be refreshed on where their work comes from. What’s more is that many of these Nobel winning economists are either unknown and often deemed irrelevant to the research of today. Every week, a new Nobel-winning economist will be featured by breaking down their work and applying their research to the events of today! Follow along while we supply your demand for the stories of Bygone Econ Icons.
