Additional Information on the Institute for New Economic Thinking

• In an effort “to extend our global community, accelerate the rate of change, and broaden the impact on the field of economics,” INET has set up a network of smaller “Institutes” on major university campuses to “act as hubs in extending the INET vision around the world.” The organization has also established formal partnerships with the London School of Economics and Political Science, the Centre for International Governance Innovation, and the James Martin 21st Century School at the University of Oxford.

• INET’s advisory board has included a number of individuals with ties to the London School of Economics, which was founded in 1895 by members of the socialist Fabian Society. Among these INET board members are UC Berkeley economics professor George Akerlof, Princeton economics professor Markus Brunnermeier, Citigroup economist Willem Buiter, Financial Markets Group member Charles Goodhart, and economics professor Perry Mehrling.
