The Top International Economists at IlSole24Ore.com

Available online exclusively for our Readers in collaboration with Project Syndicate

Starting today, there is a new not-to-be-missed feature on IlSole24ore.com. Available online for our readers, it will welcome the world’s most renowned economists. Such experts as Howard Davies, Daniel Gros, Simon Johnson, Nouriel Roubini, George Soros, Joseph Stiglitz and many others are all collaborating exclusively with Il Sole 24 ORE. The new area, which will constantly be updated under the “Economics” section, will include comments, opinions, analysis and contents to answer current questions and reflect on tomorrow’s challenges. 

These contributions provide an interesting perspective on the progressive digitalization of information in industrialized and developing countries, which requires shared knowledge.  The backdrop for this complex situation will be a variety of professions, national and cultural backgrounds and political situations. For this reason, all insight can be viewed online in Italian and in English, offering a one-of-a-kind point of view on subjects like the market crisis, the dynamics of debt as well as local and international competition.

With this project, IlSole24Ore.com, which inaugurated its new site last 24 May, is continuing in the direction of its online information project, focusing on quality, innovation and leadership, which already began with the publication of comments by Paul Krugman, available online only, and other economic experts such as Alberto Alesina and Luigi Zingales.

“The Economists” project is the result of the partnership between IlSole24Ore.com and Project Syndicate, the institution that gathers the thoughts and perspectives of the most influential international opinion leaders of our time: economists and politicians as well as scientists, philosophers and intellectuals from the world over, who answer questions on economic development, sustainability and ethics.
