E. (Eric) Glen Weyl is an economist and a Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research New England[1][2] and author of the book Radical Markets: Uprooting Capitalism and Democracy for a Just Society with co-author Eric Posner[3].[4]

Weyl is co-creator of quadratic voting, a collective decision-making procedure that enables determination of how strongly voters feel about an issue, rather than simply ascertaining whether they are in favor of it or opposed to it.[1]
