Joseph E. Stiglitz

Professor at Columbia University, Nobel laureate in economics, former World Bank chief economist and chair of the Council of Economic Advisers.

Globalization and Its Discontents documents from inside the institutions how IMF conditionality worked during the Asian and Russian crises, and why capital-account liberalisation ran ahead of the safeguards that would have made it survivable. The information-economics argument beneath the later books explains why markets with unequal information do not clear at efficient prices.
