Peter Arthur Diamond

Americký ekonom profesor Peter Arthur Diamond se narodil dne 29. dubna 1940 v New Yorku. Prosadil se především svojí analýzou americké politiky sociálního zabezpečení.

Diamondovým studijním oborem byla matematika, kterou vystudoval na Yale University v roce 1960. O tři roky později pak na Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) získává titul Ph.D. a v roce 1970 se stává řádným profesorem na University of California, Berkeley.

P. A. Diamond byl mj. presidentem Econometric Society a předsedal i další významné společnosti. American Econometric Association. V současné době působí v National Academy of Sciences a je zakládajícím členem National Academy of Social Insurance.

Diamond rozvinul svou teorii hledání na příkladu fungování ekonomiky na fiktivním ostrově s palmami a kokosovými ořechy. Ukázal, že je nutno vždy počítat také s náklady na vyhledávání tržních příležitostí a až poté lze vysvětlit různé varianty tržních situací. Je autorem tzv. Diamondova paradoxu, který se stal podnětem pro mnohé další výzkumy.

Teorie hledání pak byla následně v 90. letech rozvinuta dalšími dvěma laureáty Nobelovy ceny pro rok 2010. Diamondova analýza byla D. Mortensenem a C. Pissaridesem aplikována na pracovní trhy a výsledkem se stal tzv. DMP, tedy model zvaný v ekonomické teorii Diamondův-Mortensenův-Pissaridesův model.

Teoretický rámec search modelů lze přenést i do oblasti mnoha různých jiných trhů, např. do sféry nemovitostí, konkrétně na trh s bydlením. Poznatky teorie „vyhledávacího tření“ se aplikují dále i v rámci měnové teorie, v ekonomii veřejných financí, v regionální ekonomii, jakož i v ekonomii rodiny.

Stojí za zmínku, že profesor Diamond byl navržen americkým presidentem Obamou v roce 2010 na místo guvernéra centrální banky Fed, republikánská část Kongresu USA jej však do této funkce neschválila.

Peter A. Diamond je od roku 1966 ženatý s „Kate“ Priscillou Myrick a má nyní již dva dospělé syny – Matta a Andyho.
