最近,瑞典皇家科学院决定授于杰拉德·迪布鲁1983年诺贝尔经济学奖金。迪布鲁1921年生于法国,1950年定居美国,1975年加入美国国籍,1962年起一直在美国加利福尼亚大学任教。自1969年首次颁发该项奖金以来,他是美国第十二位获奖的经济学家。他的代表作《价值论》一书的出版(1959年)使他的声望大增。他在该书中指出:从理论上说来,自由竞争经济能够使所有市场实现供需均衡,任何产品既不会短缺也没有剩余。这种状况称为“一般均衡”。 Recently, the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences decided to award the Nobel Prize for Economics in 1983 to Gerard Debreu. Dibru was born in France in 1921, settled in the United States in 1950, joined American nationality in 1975, and has been teaching at the University of California, USA since 1962. Since winning the prize for the first time in 1969, he is the 12th-ranked American economist. The publication of his book “Axiom” (1959) greatly increased his reputation. In the book, he pointed out: In theory, a free competitive economy will enable all markets to achieve a balance between supply and demand, and there will be no shortage or surplus of any product. This condition is called “general equilibrium.”
