The Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank based in New York City, New York, founded in 2009. It pursues innovative economic theories and methods to address society's pressing concerns and aims to advance sound ideas to serve humanity. Its research covers the relationship between finance and the broader economy, inequality and distribution, the economics of innovation, and environment and resource sustainability, and it builds a global community through grantees and research networks, partnerships with universities and institutions, and events; it also provides interactive education tools at no cost to audiences worldwide.
The organization positions itself within the think-tank landscape by emphasizing multidisciplinary analysis and recognizing complexity and uncertainty in economic systems, rather than assuming rational behavior. It engages researchers, students, and institutions globally to explore new economic ideas and widen access to economic thinking through its free education tools. A notable recent development is the August 2024 appointment of Muayyad Al-Chalabi as a digital security analyst to bolster cybersecurity for INET.
