Stanley Fischer was the Renaissance man of contemporary macroeconomists. He was among the most influential theorists of his generation. He taught many of the leading economic policymakers of the era, including the former chair of the Federal Reserve, Ben Bernanke, and ex-president of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi. With his friend and colleague, the late Rudi Dornbusch, he co-authored a path-breaking textbook on macroeconomics. Above all, perhaps, while at the IMF he managed the financial crises of the 1990s and early 2000s.
斯坦利•費希爾(Stanley Fischer)被譽爲當代宏觀經濟學界的「文藝復興人物」。他是其一代最具影響力的理論家之一，曾培養了許多時代領先的經濟政策制定者，包括前美聯準主席班•柏南奇(Ben Bernanke)和前歐洲央行(European Central Bank)行長馬里奧•德拉吉(Mario Draghi)。他與摯友兼同事、已故的魯迪•多恩布希(Rudi Dornbusch)合著了一本開創性的宏觀經濟學教材。或許最重要的是，在國際貨幣基金組織(IMF)任職期間，他成功應對了20世紀90年代和21世紀初的金融危機。
