India’s A+ in economics: After Amartya, it’s Abhijit

继阿马蒂亚阿之后，阿比吉特表示：印度在经济方面为“A+”

NEW DELHI: Mumbai-born, Kolkata-bred economist Abhijit Banerjee–an alumnus of JNU–will share the 2019 Nobel Prize in economic sciences with his colleague and wife Esther Duflo and fellow researcher Michael Kremer for their groundbreaking experiment-based research into how to reduce global poverty.

新德里：出生于孟买、在加尔各答长大的经济学家阿比吉特•班纳吉是尼赫鲁大学的校友，他将与同事兼妻子埃斯特•迪弗洛以及同事迈克尔•克雷默分享2019年诺贝尔经济学奖，以表彰他们在如何减少全球贫困方面所做的开创性实验研究。

“The research conducted by this year’s Laureates has considerably improved our ability to fight global poverty. In just two decades, their new experiment-based approach has transformed development economics, which is now a flourishing field of research,” the Nobel Prize Committee said in its announcement of the $ 1.1 million prize.

诺贝尔奖委员会在宣布这项奖金为110万美元的奖项时表示：“本年度的获奖者进行的研究大大提高了我们应对全球贫困的能力。在仅仅20年的时间里，他们基于实验的新方法改变了发展经济学，如今这是一个蓬勃发展的研究领域”

At 46, Paris-born Duflo is the youngest ever–and only second woman (after Elinor Ostrom in 2009)–to win an economics Nobel. She was Banerjee’s doctoral student at MIT.

现年46岁的迪弗洛出生于巴黎，她是有史以来最年轻的诺贝尔经济学奖获得者，也是继埃莉诺•奥斯特罗姆(2009年诺贝尔经济学奖得主)之后第二位获得诺贝尔经济学奖的女性。她是班纳吉在麻省理工学院指导的博士生。

Currently the Ford Foundation International Professor of Economics at MIT, the 1961-born Banerjee, born to a Maharashtrian mother and Bengali father, and Duflo are best known for anti-poverty research emphasising the use of field experiments to bring the principles of laboratory-style randomised, controlled trials to empirical economics.

班纳吉出生于1961年，母亲是马哈拉施特拉邦人，父亲是孟加拉人，现任麻省理工学院福特基金会国际经济学教授。迪弗洛以反贫困研究著称，强调利用实地实验，将实验室随机对照试验的原则引入实证经济学。

Much of Banerjee’s work centres on economic policies and research relating to India, particularly in the field of microfinance and financial inclusion. He was among the advisors to the Congress Party on its Nyuntam Aay Yojana (NYAY scheme), proposed ahead of 2019 general elections, which pledged to distribute cash to 20% of India's poorest families as a minimum guarantee program.

班纳吉的大部分工作集中在与印度有关的经济政策和研究上，特别是在小额信贷和普惠金融领域。他是国大党"最低收入保障计划"的顾问之一，该计划在2019年大选前提出，承诺向印度20%的最贫困家庭发放现金作为最低保障计划。

Banerjee took a dim view of the Modi government’s demonetisation move and GST implementation, and has cited them among reasons for India’s economic slowdown.

班纳吉对莫迪政府的废钞行动和GST（商品及服务税）的实施持悲观态度，并将它们列为印度经济放缓的原因之一。

Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated Banerjee on his honor, noting in a brief tweet that “he has made notable contributions in the field of poverty alleviation”. Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman, a fellow JNU alumnus, tweeted, “Congratulations #AbhijitBanerjee on being awarded the 2019 Nobel Prize for your contribution for easing poverty. #JNU Also wishing Esther Duflo and Michael Kremer. #NobelPrize2019”.

印度总理纳伦德拉•莫迪对班纳吉表示祝贺，并在一条简短的推文中指出，“他在减贫领域做出了显著贡献”。印度财政部长西塔拉曼是尼赫鲁大学的校友，她在推特上写道:“祝贺班纳吉获得2019年诺贝尔奖，你为减贫做出了贡献。#JNU也祝福埃斯特·迪弗洛和迈克尔·克雷默。# NobelPrize2019”。

Indians flourish ONLY when they study and work in USA. So it's a Nobel for USA not India.

This type economists from USA, sponsored by ford-foundations (Banerjee) and Saudi King''s foundation (his wife) have created most of the rich-poor divide we see today. These economists are just tools in the hands of western economic powers, their patrons/foundations to wield power/control in develo world.. summarily rejected all such god for nothing economists/advice and could got rid of poverty & saw never before seen poverty reduction, but places where these economists & thei ...

这种类型的经济学家来自美国，由福特基金会(班纳吉)和沙特国王基金会(他的妻子)资助，造成了我们今天看到的贫富差距。这些经济学家只是西方经济强国手中的工具，他们的赞助人/基金会在发展家行使权力，控制发展家。、拒绝了这些经济学家的建议，从而成功让无数人脱贫，取得了前所未有的成就。

I feel they should be conferred the prize after practically eradicating poverty in India at least to a noticeable extent. What use is their study of poverty if it is not able to make real difference on the ground? I believe the selection committees are rather skewed.

我觉得，应该至少在他们的研究取得了消除印度贫困的初步成果之后，再授予他们诺贝尔奖。如果不能真正减贫，他们的研究又有什么意义呢?

我认为评选委员会是相当偏颇的。
