Biografia e Jornada do Autor
Thomas Piketty was born in Clichy, France, on May 7, 1971, and moved quickly through France’s elite academic track. He studied mathematics at the École normale supérieure, completed a doctorate in economics through EHESS and the London School of Economics’ European doctoral program, and taught at MIT from 1993 to 1995 while still in his early twenties. A decisive turn came when he left the American academic track and returned to France, later explaining that he wanted to work closer to the historical and sociological traditions of Paris.
