First Things First - An Introduction to The Triumphant Economists Blog

Throughout history, there have been several economists that have been triumphant in revolutionising the economic thought landscape. Some that come to mind include Adam Smith and his Wealth of Nations, John Maynard Keynes with his Keynesian economics, and Milton Friedman and his Shareholder Theory. Modern economists that have built on the foundations of the predecessors include Joseph Stiglitz, Harry Markowitz, Jens Stoltenberg, and Steven Levitt. For both student and experienced economists, this blog will provide insights into the revolution of economics throughout history, opportunities to learn more about economic concepts and terminology, and the employment outlook for economists with guides on the skills and experience that are essential for a successful career in economics.

These insights will be presented in various forms:

*Weekly insights – the triumphs of revolutionary economists throughout history and looking towards the future generations of economic thought based on the successes of their predecessors.

*In depth weekly articles – the progress of economic thought through the decades up to the present day.

*Regular explanations of relevant modern economic concepts and terminology.
