Nobel Economics Prize Winners Offer Lessons from History
This year's Nobel economics prize winners provide valuable insights and warnings from history, particularly relevant in today's economy threatened by AI disruption.
Three professors, Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion, and Peter Howitt, will share the Nobel memorial prize in economics for their work on how innovation, including technology, drives economic growth.
- Joel Mokyr - Northwestern University
- Philippe Aghion - teaches in Paris and London

Their work serves as a warning that economic growth is not inevitable and must be nurtured, as history has shown.
