Ignacy Sachs

Ignacy Sachs (17 December 1927 – 2 August 2023) was a Polish-born French economist. He was considered to be an ecosocioeconomist for his ideas about development as a combination of economic growth, equalitarian increase in social well-being and environmental preservation.

Ignacy Sachs was born on 17 December 1927.^[1]

Sachs taught at Paris XII University. He was an invited researcher in the Institut of Advanced Studies in University of São Paulo, and lived in Brazil between 1941 and 1953 as a war refugee. He was one of the few Jews who returned to Poland (before his move to France) after World War II, which he did due to his communist convictions.^[2]

Ignacy Sachs died on 2 August 2023, at the age of 95.^[3]
