Nicholas Georgescu-Roegen, 1906-1994

Economist roman. A studiat matematica statistica la Universitatile din Bucuresti si Sorbona, unde obtine doctoratul la 24 de ani. Studiaza economia trei ani la Harvard, ca elev al lui Joseph Schumpeter. 

Dupa ce se intoarce la Bucuresti, lucreaza pentru guvernul roman si participa la negocierile de dupa razboi cu Uniunea Sovietica. In 1948 fuge din tara ascunzandu-se cu sotia sa intr-un butoi din cala unui vas.

In Statele Unite se stabileste la Vanderbilt University si colaboreaza cu Koopmans si la Cowles Commission, lucrand in programarea lineala si teoria echilibrului general.

La mijlocul anilor saizeci dezvolta anumite idei despre un nou focar evolutiv biologic al economiei.
