Ohlin Lectures
In order to honor the significant scientific achievements of Bertil Ohlin, the Stockholm School of Economics arranges the annual Ohlin Lectures. These lectures are devoted to important economic problems in areas close to Ohlin’s heart. The lectures are subsequently published in book form by the MIT Press, Cambridge, MA and London, in a series that has gained a wide readership. In 1999, an international symposium to honor the name of Bertil Ohlin was also arranged at the school with the participation of a large number of leading international economists.
