Eric Glen Weyl (born May 6, 1985)[1] is an American economist at Microsoft Research,[2][3] and a co-author (with Eric Posner) of the book Radical Markets: Uprooting Capitalism and Democracy for a Just Society.[4][5]
Weyl helped create a collective decision-making procedure known as quadratic voting, designed to allow fine-grained expression of how strongly voters feel about an issue,[2] and also a method of democratically disbursing resources known as quadratic funding.[6]
