John Hicks

Sir John R. Hicks (Warwick, England, 1904 - 1989) was one of the most important and influential economists of the twentieth century. Hicks was a professor at University of Oxford for most of his life and shared the Nobel Prize in 1972. He developed the famous "compensation" criteria called Kaldor-Hicks efficiency for welfare comparisons in 1939.

His most influential contribution has come to be called the Hicks-Hansen IS-LM Model which, based on the theories of John Maynard Keynes (See Keynsianism, Macroeconomics), describes the economy as a balance between three commodities: money, consumption and investment.
