The 2024 Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, more commonly known as the Nobel Prize in Economics, has been awarded to three influential economists this year - Daron Acemoglu, Simon Johnson, and James Robinson. The prize – worth 11 million Swedish crowns, or about $1 million or roughly €950,000 – was awarded by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences for their ‘studies of how institutions are formed and affect prosperity’ (Ricciuti), providing critical insights into why some countries achieve higher per capita incomes and others struggle with persistent economic challenges. Their work also emphasizes the importance of establishing robust institutions to support sustainable economic growth and social stability.
