Marshal Marshall Why did Alice Baranoff's name stick? Sadiqa Nejad Qurban/ Author of the publication Alice Baranoff was an American economist and expert in international monetary issues. She later became the first woman to become a tenured professor at Boston College's School of Arts and Sciences. Her story is not just another "first woman". Her life shows that an important part of the technical work of post-World War II economic policy, usually described as masculine, was done by women who both understood numbers and knew what destiny they were bound to. The reconstruction economy did not depend only on money and credit; It also depended on where countries would invest their limited resources, what industries they would develop, and how they would balance immediate needs with long-term growth. From 1942 to 1946, Burnoff served on the board of directors of the US Federal Reserve and participated in the development of international monetary programs. This period was accompanied by negotiations that led to the Bretton Woods Conference in 1944 and the establishment of international financial institutions. As a fellow economist of the Bretton Woods Conference Secretariat, he participated in the process of drawing up agreements that paved the way for the establishment of the International Monetary Fund and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development. The archival documents of the International Monetary Fund also recorded his name among the people connected with the files of this conference. Burnov was against government planning or in favor of a complete transfer of investments to the market. The available evidence further suggests that he referred to industrial choices and the comparative advantage of states. Norway's experience also showed that foreign aid alone does not determine the path of development. The government that receives aid has its own priorities, and the country that provides resources also raises expectations about how they will be used. Economists need to assess the possibility of implementing plans and the economic consequences of decisions at a distance between these two. The durability of Burnov's name must be sought in the collection of his activities; From researching the international monetary system and working at the International Monetary Fund to the assignment in the Marshall Plan and university teaching.
