Congratulations are in order to Oliver Hart and Bengt Holmstrom, winners on Monday of the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics. Even though economics is not a full-fledged Nobel Prize, it has been earned by some splendid social scientists over the years — including a number of people who are not economists at all, from Herbert Simon and John Nash to Daniel Kahneman and Elinor Ostrom.
恭喜奧利弗?哈特(Oliver Hart)和本特?霍姆斯特姆(Bengt Holmstrom)——2016年諾貝爾經濟學獎(Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics)的得主。盡管諾貝爾經濟學獎并非根據阿爾弗雷德?諾貝爾的遺囑所設立,但多年來有一些出色的社會科學家獲此殊榮——其中包括一些根本不是經濟學家的人,從赫伯特?西蒙(Herbert Simon)和約翰?納什(John Nash)、到丹尼爾?卡尼曼(Daniel Kahneman)和埃莉諾?奧斯特羅姆(Elinor Ostrom)。
