Joan Robinson

    31 ottobre 1903 – 5 agosto 1983

    Joan Robinson è stata un'economista post-keynesiana britannica, ampiamente riconosciuta per i suoi significativi contributi all'economia monetaria e alla teoria economica in generale. Il suo lavoro approfondiva i meccanismi di mercato e le dinamiche degli investimenti di capitale. Pioniera nella teoria della concorrenza imperfetta, Robinson ha evidenziato il ruolo pervasivo della disuguaglianza nei sistemi economici. Le sue intuizioni continuano a plasmare il discorso economico.
