PAUL A. SAMUELSON (1915-)
Paul Anthony Samuelson é um economista americano nascido em Gary, Indiana. Obteve o Prêmio Nobel de Economia em 1970 pelo trabalho científico por meio do qual desenvolveu a teoria econômica estática e dinâmica, contribuindo ativamente para elevar o nível da análise na ciência econômica.
É autor do manual de economia mais vendido da história, que, além de fazê-lo extraordinariamente rico, serviu para formar muitas gerações de economistas de todo o mundo.
Além de pedagogo e divulgador, tem muitas contribuições originais. Samuelson é especialmente interessado nos aspectos dinâmicos da economia. Seu principal mérito é, quiçá, ter realizado a chamada "síntese neoclássica", isto é, a fusão num conjunto coerente da economia de Keynes com a de seus predecessores.
