Alan Stuart Blinder (/ˈblndər/, born October 14, 1945) is an American economics professor at Princeton University and is listed among the most influential economists in the world.[1] He is a leading macro-economist, politically liberal, and a champion of Keynesian economics and policies.[2]

Blinder served on President Bill Clinton's Council of Economic Advisers from January 1993 to June 1994[3] and as the vice chairman of the Federal Reserve from June 1994 to January 1996.[4]

His academic work has focused particularly on monetary policy and central banking,[5] and on the "offshoring" of jobs. His writing has been published in The New York Times, The Washington Post, as well as a monthly column in The Wall Street Journal.

Regarding the 2008 near-meltdown of major financial institutions, Blinder drew ten lessons for fellow economists, including “Excessive complexity is not just anti-competitive, it's dangerous” and “Illiquidity closely resembles insolvency.” [6]
