Christopher Pissarides
Řeckokyperský Brit Sir Christopher Antoniou Pissarides se narodil dne 20. února 1948 v Nicosii.
B.A. získal roku 1970, M.A. roku 1971 na University of Essex. Následně přešel na London School of Economics (LSE), kde roku 1973 získává doktorát v oboru ekonomie a od roku 1974 se trvale usazuje ve Velké Británii.
Ve svých výzkumech se věnuje především studiu vztahů mezi trhem práce a makroekonomií. Je spolutvůrcem tzv. Mortensen-Pissaridesova modelu, aplikovaného v oboru moderní makroekonomie.
Pissarides je členem Econometric Society, British Academy, Society of Labor Economists. V roce 2005 byl společně s D. Mortensenem oceněn prestižní IZA Prize.
Kromě výzkumné činnosti se zabýval v průběhu své kariéry i prací pro Kyperskou centrální banku, byl poradcem World Bank, Evropské komise, Bank of England a OECD.
Původně byl velkým zastáncem nové měny euro a přesvědčoval i kyperskou vládu o jeho výhodách, dnes však tuto měnu zásadně odmítá.
Pissarides byl dvakrát ženatý, z druhého manželství, ukončeného roku 2008 rozchodem, má dvě děti – Antonyho a Mirandu. Jeho současnou životní partnerkou je Ph.D. Liwa Rachel Ngai, spoluautorka mnoha odborných statí.
V červnu 2013 obdržel Pissarides rytířský řád za zásluhy v ekonomice.
