Up until his retirement, I would have said Alan Greenspan, former head of the Federal Reserve Board, was the most influencial.  Now I would have to say that the new chairman, Ben Bermanke, will end up being the most influential.

No, Greenspan is still alive.\n\nOn November 16, 2006, economist Milton Friedman died. Friedman was the economist that much of the free world models thier economy after.\n\nOne thing notable about Greenspan,  during his reign as Federal Reserve Chairman, mostly during a Bull Market, where millions have been made in the stock market; Greenspans personal financial portfolio actually consistantly lost money and he made his money from other sources, such as salary, speaking, books, etc., but never succeeded in the stock market.

No, there is no Hayek Johan. But I think you may be talking about the economist F. A. Hayek.\n\nF. A. Hayek advocates the classic liberal economic principles of the nineteenth century. These principles include an unhindered free enterprise system, a free market, and political democracy. These beliefs have led him to suggest that the form of government most conducive to freedom is one with impartial laws which guarantee social order and the unregulated expression of human life. \n\nHayek is a major figure in contemporary economic thought and is generally credited with inspiring England's shift away from a government-controlled economy. But because his ideas ran counter to the prevailing collectivist views of other economists for several decades, Hayek's "fame and his influence have been achieved very much against the flow of fashionable opinion," Michael Ivens writes in the Spectator. \n\nHayek has written on such diverse subjects as monetary theory, inflation, socialism, political freedom, unemployment, and scientific methodology, but he is most highly regarded for his books examining the relationship between economic systems and personal freedom.
