The Economist Who Reshaped the World
Milton Friedman stood just five feet tall, yet his intellectual shadow looms over modern economic thought like few others. This unassuming man with thick glasses and a ready smile became both a lightning rod for controversy and an intellectual hero who fundamentally altered our understanding of markets, money, and freedom. His journey from the son of Jewish immigrants running a small dry goods store to becoming the world's most influential economist reveals how powerful ideas can reshape society. When Larry Summers-raised in a household of devoted Keynesian economists-evolved from viewing Friedman as "a devil figure" to developing "enormous respect" for his ideas, it reflected the broader transformation Friedman himself had engineered in economic thinking. Whether you see him as the brilliant mind who tamed inflation and unleashed prosperity or the ideologue whose free-market fundamentalism widened inequality, taking a position on Friedman means taking a position on the last half-century of economic life.
