[edit] Biography
David Vines is a British-born British-based Australian academic economist. He was born in Oxford, where his father was a Fellow in Physics of Lincoln College but his parents soon moved to Australia, where he grew up. He was educated at Scotch College, Melbourne and proceeded to University of Melbourne.
[edit] Early Intellectual Influences
After Melbourne, Vines relocated back to the United Kingdom, studying Economics at Cambridge University. Here he met and worked with the Nobel Prize-winning economist, James Meade. Meade himself had worked under - and been deeply influenced by - John Maynard Keynes. Meade in turn influenced Vines. Today Vines continues to work on macroeconomics, work that can be said to have been directly inherited in a verbal tradition from Keynes through Meade.
