What Happens When Other Countries Have the Money

Conversations host Harry Kreisler welcomes Professor Stephen S. Cohen for a discussion of the book he has written with Professor Brad Delong entitled "The End of Influence." Professor Cohen argues that the 2008 economic collapse demonstrates the failure both domestically and internationally of neo-liberal economic policies embraced by both democrats and republicans during the last three decades.

@rvanreekum The government will almost certainly inflate away the debt. When we can't borrow and also can't manufacture anything, get ready for the good times.

@rvanreekum The problem is that the people who can do math are idiots about policy and vice versa.

I assure that economics is INCREDIBLY necessary.

A lot of political science wisdom inside, but I really don't find any thing scientific... Generally speaking it is a very good talk, I am eager to see if the book gives any mathematic/logical deduction, or just some archiving of the events.
