Biografie & Werdegang des Autors
J. Bradford DeLong built his career at the intersection of scholarship, policy, and public argument. Trained at Harvard, where he earned his B.A. in 1982 and Ph.D. in 1987, he taught at MIT, Boston University, and Harvard before joining the University of California, Berkeley in 1993; he became a full professor there in 1997. The decisive early turning point came when he entered government as Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy from 1993 to 1995, working on the Clinton administration’s budget and macroeconomic agenda, trade negotiations including the Uruguay Round and NAFTA, and the policy crises that shaped 1990s economic debate.
