Since 1969, pioneers in the field of economics and the social sciences have received the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, often regarded as the Nobel award of Economics. In the half-century that has followed, the honor has been designated 51 times to 84 Laureates — many of whom we hope to highlight in this series. This week, we’re featuring the recipients of the first prize, Ragnar Frisch and Jan Tinbergen, “for having developed and applied dynamic models for the analysis of economic processes.”
