The article presents the biographical outline and selected elements of the achievements of two winners of this award, which in 2018 was awarded to William Dawbney Nordhaus and Paul Michael Romer. The study focuses primarily on those elements of the achievements of both American economists, which have been underlined in the decision to award the Nobel Prize: including long-term macroeconomic studies of the importance of global climate change by William Dawbney Nordhaus and endogenous technological changes by Paul Michael Romer and creating on this basis foundations of the endogenous theory of economic growth.
