Emmanuel Farhi, Waggoner professor of economics, died July 23 in Cambridge. Considered one of the leading economists of his generation, both in the United States and in France, he was a former economic adviser to French prime minister François Fillon. He came to Harvard in 2006 as an assistant professor and received tenure just four years later. His research focused on macroeconomics and finance, particularly on financial stability and reforming the international monetary system. At his death he was working on new methods for analyzing the macroeconomy as a network of interacting sectors or industries and analyzing the effects of disruptions, such as those caused by the coronavirus pandemic. He received numerous awards for his pathbreaking work, including the Bernácer Prize of the Observatory of the European Central Bank for the best European economist under the age of 40 and the Malinvaud Prize of the French Economic Association; in 2014 the International Monetary Fund named him one of the 25 best economists under the age of 45.
