Today’s Doodle, illustrated by Manchester-based guest artist Camilla Ru, celebrates １St. Lucian economist, professor, and author Sir W. Arthur Lewis, considered one of the pioneers in the field of modern ２development economics. A 3trailblazer not only in his research, he was also the first Black faculty member at the London School of Economics, first Black person to 4 hold a chair in a British university (at Manchester University), and the first Black instructor to receive full professorship at Princeton University. On this day in 1979, Lewis was jointly awarded the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics for his pioneering work to model the economic forces that impact developing countries.

William Arthur Lewis was born on January 23, 1915, in Castries on the Caribbean island of St. Lucia, at the time a British 5colony. Despite facing challenges with racial 6discrimination, in 1932 he won a government scholarship and 7set out to study at the London School of Economics, where he eventually earned a doctorate in industrial economics. Lewis quickly ascended the ranks of academia and by 33 was a full professor−one of the highest distinctions of a tenured professor.

Lewis shifted his focus to world economic history and economic development and in 1954 published his foundational article 8“Economic Development with Unlimited Supplies of Labour.” Among many valuable accomplishments, Lewis contributed influential work to the United Nations and shared his 9expertise as an adviser to governments in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean. He also helped establish and served as the first president of the Caribbean Development Bank.

In honor of his lifelong achievements, the British government knighted Lewis in 1963.

昨日はウィリアム・アーサー・ルイスがノーベル経済学賞を受賞した日ということでした。
黒人ということで差別を受けながらも、教授にまで上りつめています。


ルイスが受賞したこのノーベル経済学賞、正式にはノーベル賞じゃないんですよね。
アルフレッド・ノーベル記念経済学スウェーデン国立銀行賞とか正式には言ったりします。
ノーベル財団はノーベル賞ではないとして認めてません。
あくまで通称ということですね。
できたのも1968年とかなり後になってからです。賞金のノーベル基金からではなく、スウェーデン国立銀行から拠出されています。
