Abstract

Hugo Sonnenschein’s accomplishments as an advisor began in the classroom. There, his charismatic personality combined with mastery of the material to produce a compelling educational experience. Along with rigorous, ambitious treatments of the major topics of economic theory, he communicated values: the goals of clarity and generality, the importance of acknowledging others’ ideas, and the cooperative nature of learning and research. One of the results was the exceptional sense of rapport among his advisees. That is probably why I learned so much from my fellow students at Princeton, most of all Vijay Krishna and Dilip Abreu.
