Sir James Alexander Mirrlees, FBA (born 5 July 1936, Minnigaff, Wigtownshire) is a Scottish economist and winner of the 1996 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences. He was knighted in 1998.
詹姆斯•亚历山大•莫里森先生,FBA(出生于1936年6月5日,Minnigaff, 威格敦郡[英国苏格兰原郡名] ),是一位苏格兰经济学家,曾获1996年诺贝尔经济学奖。他于1998年被授予爵士称号。
He was educated at the University of Edinburgh and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he was a very active student debater. Between 1968 and 1976, James A. Mirrlees was a visiting professor at MIT for three times[1]. He taught at both Oxford (1969-1995) and Cambridge (1963- and 1995-). During his time at Oxford he published the economic models and equations for which he would eventually be awarded his Nobel Prize. They centred around situations in which economic information is asymmetrical or incomplete, determining the extent to which they should affect the optimal rate of saving in an economy. Among other results, they demonstrated the principles of "moral hazard" and "optimal income taxation" discussed in the books of William Vickrey. The methodology has since become the standard in the field.
他曾就读于爱丁堡大学和剑桥的三一学院,他曾经是一个活跃的学生辩手。 1968年至1976年,詹姆斯•莫里斯曾经三次作为美国麻省理工学院的访问教授 。他曾经在牛津大学( 1969年至1995年)和剑桥大学( 1963年-1 995年- )任教。他在牛津大学期间,出版了关于经济模式和公式的著作,并因此最终将被授予诺贝尔奖。他们围绕着经济信息的不对称或不完整的情况下,在一个经济体中如何确定最优储蓄率的问题。在其他的结果中,他们证明了威廉•维克里在其著作中所讨论的“道德风险”和“最优所得税”原则。这种方法已经成为该领域的标准。
Vickrey and Mirrlees shared the 1996 Nobel Prize for Economics "for their fundamental contributions to the economic theory of incentives under asymmetric information".
