Joan Robinson

    31 octobre 1903 – 5 août 1983

    Joan Robinson était une économiste postkeynésienne britannique, largement reconnue pour ses contributions significatives à l'économie monétaire et à la théorie économique en général. Ses travaux se penchaient sur les mécanismes de marché et la dynamique de l'investissement en capital. Pionnière dans la théorie de la concurrence imparfaite, Robinson a souligné le rôle prégnant de l'inégalité dans les systèmes économiques. Ses idées continuent de façonner le discours économique.
