Stiglitz

Joseph E. Stiglitz, a Nobel laureate in economics and University Professor at Columbia University, is a former chief economist of the World Bank (1997-2000), chair of the US President’s Council of Economic Advisers, and co-chair of the High-Level Commission on Carbon Prices. He is a member of the Independent Commission for the Reform of International Corporate Taxation and was lead author of the 1995 IPCC Climate Assessment.

Opinion: Kristalina Georgieva has been a bold leader in confronting the economic fallout of the pandemic and positioning the IMF as a global pioneer on climate change. The efforts now underway to remove her are unjust, writes Joseph E. Stiglitz.
