A student of Milton Friedman, the “father” of contemporary liberalism,
Gary Stanley Becker was the first to apply the tools of economic research
to issues normally reserved to sociologists and demographers, such as education,
racism, crime and the family. He was the first to formalise the concept
of human capital, providing a scientific justification for the need to invest
in education to ensure the economic development of a country.
During his meetings in Milan, Becker will join Italian experts in examining
the most relevant issues in his research – from the free market to
discrimination, from new patterns of consumption to the role of innovation
and human capital as strategic factors in competitiveness. |
