Alan Krueger

Alan B. Krueger, Bendheim Professor of Economics and Public Policy and professor of economics and public affairs, Woodrow Wilson School, Princeton University, will tackle multiple projects, including a study of whether there is a connection between terrorism and poverty, low income, and political repression. During his year at the Foundation, Krueger will also examine private school voucher experiments, the ways in which the public learns about the economy, the effectiveness of the Fast ForWord reading program, and methods of measuring well-being.
