Named one ofAmerica’s 25 most influential people by Time magazine in 1997, Paul Romer is the primary developer of New Growth Theory. His research addresses one of the oldest questions in economics: What sustains economic growth in a physical world characterized by diminishing returns and scarcity? He argues that the answer lies in the way societies deal with advances in technology. For his work in New Growth Theory, he is the fourth recipient of the prestigious Horst Claus Recktenwald Prize in Economics for outstanding achievement and contributions to the field of economics and to the improvement of society as a whole. Dr. Romer’s current research focuses on the concept of charter cities.
