Christopher A. Pissarides

The 2010 Nobel Prize winner in Economics is a Greek Cypriot professor at the Economics Department of the London School of Economics and Political Science. He is currently employed at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Due to its outstanding contributions in market search theory and macroeconomics, he shared the 2010 Nobel Prize in Economics with two other economists, Peter A. Diamond and Dale T. Mortensen. Its most well-known academic achievement is the search and matching theory aimed at the interaction between the labor market and the macroeconomy, which explains why there are contradictions and conflicts between \high unemployment\ and \labor shortage\ in today's society, but they also exist simultaneously. In addition to winning the Nobel Prize in Economics, he also shared the IZA Prize in Labor Economics with Mortensen in 2005. At the same time, he is also an academician of the British Academy of Social Sciences and a member of the British Institute of Econometrics.
