Columnist Biography: Paul Krugman
![P]() aul Krugman joined The New York Times in 1999 as a
columnist on the Op-Ed Page and continues as professor of Economics and
International Affairs at Princeton University.
Mr. Krugman received his B.A. from Yale University in 1974 and his Ph.D. from
MIT in 1977. He has taught at Yale, MIT and Stanford. At MIT he became the Ford
International Professor of Economics.
Mr. Krugman is the author or editor of 20 books and more than 200 papers in
professional journals and edited volumes. His professional reputation rests
largely on work in international trade and finance; he is one of the founders of
the "new trade theory," a major rethinking of the theory of international trade.
In recognition of that work, in 1991 the American Economic Association awarded
him its John Bates Clark medal, a prize given every two years to "that economist
under forty who is adjudged to have made a significant contribution to economic
knowledge." Mr. Krugman's current academic research is focused on economic and
currency crises.
At the same time, Mr. Krugman has written extensively for a broader public
audience. Some of his recent articles on economic issues, originally published
in Foreign Affairs, Harvard Business Review, Scientific American and other
journals, are reprinted in Pop Internationalism and The Accidental
Theorist.
