On September 18, 2017, Nobel laureate Eric Maskin became the latest recipient of the HEC Paris Honoris Causa Professor Award, a title which recognizes the works of exceptional heads of states, professors and business leaders. Accepting the award as a “wonderful honor”, the pioneer in mechanism design and implementation theory proceeded to describe his application of mechanism design on current electoral systems to a packed audience at the HEC campus. Earlier, in a wide-ranging exchange, Professor Maskin shared with HEC Communications his vision of global warming, his opinions on the Universal Basic Income, his prescient theories forewarning the world of the 2008-9 financial crash, his commitment to social justice and his call for economists to relativize radical economic changes with historical perspective. --------------------- Read more on HEC Paris website: http://www.hec.edu/News-Room/News/HEC-Paris-Honoris-Causa-Professor-2017-Rewards-Lifelong-Work-of-Nobel-Laureate-Eric-Maskin
