Michio Morishima, 1923- 

Nacido en Osaka y educado en la Universidad de Kyoto. Profesor en la Universidad de Kyoto (1950) y en la de Osaka (1951). Obtiene una ayuda de la Rockefeller Foundation que le permite visitar durante dos años las Universidades de Oxford y Yale. Se traslada definitivamente al Reino Unido en 1968, como profesor de Economía, primero en la Universidad de Essex (1968-70)  y finalmente en la London School of Economics.

Morishima es un economista matemático. Combina métodos de la teoría del equilibrio general competitivo, con el análisis input-output y de la dinámica económica para estudiar el crecimiento económico. Entusiasta del modelo de expansión económica de John von Neumann, ha dedicado mucho esfuerzo a revisitar teorías de otros economistas -Ricardo, Marx, Walras y Hicks- desde el punto de vista de von Neumann.

Ha ayudado también al conocimiento mutuo entre las culturas económicas anglosajonas y del Japón.
