David Ricardo
David Ricardo was a British political economist and one of the most influential figures in classical economics, known for his contributions to the theory of comparative advantage and the labor theory of value. His work laid the foundation for modern economic theory, particularly in international trade, advocating that countries should specialize in the production of goods where they have a relative efficiency, thus benefiting all trading partners.
