The Nobel Factor: The Prize in Economics, Social Democracy, and the Market Turn

A Nobel Prize in Economics is a major honour although it isn’t without controversy. Critics say it’s the product of a conflict between free market orthodoxy and social democracy, while the prize winners reflect the prevailing ideology.

And why is it that to date more men than women have been awarded the top prize?
