And finally, Abhijit Banerjee’s Nobel Prize can be viewed as a joint tribute to Harvard (where he took his Ph D) and to the hard work he has done since.

Delighted to hear that Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Dufflo have won the Nobel Prize for Economics. Richly deserved. Abhijit is a proud graduate of that much-maligned university, JNU, and his work has inspired many younger Indian scholars.

Abhijit‘s father, Dipak Banerjee, was a much admired teacher of Economics at Presidency College. His mother, Nirmala Banerjee, is a pioneering feminist economist.
