Michael Moynihan (intellectual)

Michael Moynihan is an American professor and author who achieved renown in the 1990s for his bestselling book, The Coming American Renaissance (Simon & Schuster, 1996). The book, a rebuttal of works by Lester Thurow and others, argued that America possessed a unique set of economic advantages that would propel it to global leadership in the 21st century. Moynihan cited technology leadership, in particular, as a driver of economic growth. His ideas were well received by the Clinton Administration which he joined as an advisor to Secretaries of the Treasury, Lawrence Summers and Robert Rubin. During the Clinton Administration, Moynihan was in charge of Internet and electronic commerce policy and led successful efforts to pass the Internet Tax Freedom Act. Moynihan also founded the Internet website AlwaysonTV [http://AlwaysonTV.com] .
