• NY Review of Books Panel: 'The Economic Crisis and How to Deal With It'

    The New York Review of Books held a crowded panel as part of the PEN World Voices Festival . Senator Bill Bradley , Niall Ferguson , Paul Krugman , Nouriel Roubini , George Soros , and Robin Wells filled a stage and discussed The Economic Crisis and How to Deal with It . A lot of bloggers and economists (and econobloggers, for that matter) have highlighted the talk for the jousting between Krugman and Ferguson-- Brad DeLong , for example, backs up Krugman in a post today . But the talk was much more. There are several good summaries available, like this one from Jane Ciabattari . The folks at PEN have made audio of the full event available. You can listen or download an mp3 here . And you can hear an excerpt (with slides) below:
