WAMC's In Conversation with... Paul Krugman
|
Paul Krugman has at least three jobs: he is professor of economics and international affairs at Princeton University; Centenary Professor at the London School of Economics; and, perhaps his best-known job, an op-ed columnist for the New York Times. In recognition of his influence the Washington Monthly called him “the most important political columnist in America.”
Krugman is the author or editor of 20 books and more than 200 professional journal articles, many of them on international trade and finance. In recognition of his work, he received the John Bates Clark Medal from the American Economic Association, an award given every two years to the top economist under the age of forty.
For the past twenty years, Krugman has written extensively for noneconomists, including a monthly column, “The Dismal Science,” for the online magazine Slate. He has also been a columnist for Fortune and has published articles in The New Republic, Foreign Policy, Newsweek, and the New York Times Magazine, before joining the New York Times.
Paul Krugman joined The New York Times in 1999 as a columnist on the Op-Ed Page and continues as professor of Economics and International Affairs at Princeton University.
