John Norbert Joseph MuellbauerFBA (born 17 July 1944) is a British economist noted for influential contributions to applied microeconomics and macroeconomics,especially in consumer demand,housing economics,and macro-financial modelling.[4] He co-developed the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS)[5] with Angus Deaton and co-authored the graduate text Economics and Consumer Behaviour (1980).[6]
Beginning in the late 1980s,he was one of the first economists to focus on the complex interactions between housing markets and the economy. Over subsequent decades,he extended his research to the roles of household balance sheets,credit constraints,and housing markets,developing econometric techniques to measure unobserved credit conditions and demonstrating how housing booms and busts transmit to the real economy.[4][7][8][9] In 2014,Muellbauer wrote a famous call for a 'quantitative easing for people' in the Eurozone.[10]
