I’m sorry but Krugman isn’t even highly respected in the Princeton Econ department, he also doesn’t get invited to NYU Stern and Columbia Dept of Econ anymore because he made a complete joke of himself repeatedly to the point where major alum were telling the schools to never waste their time again by inviting him to symposiums.
He hasn’t written a pure economics paper in over a decade... so what was he awarded for?
Thanks for your input! I thought I had read something by another economist (conservative guy), that Krugman was well respected in economics, but that he had gone off the deep end politically and socially.
