Reform the Money

L. Randall Wray — L. Randall Wray interviewed by Ian Masters on KPFK FM-90.7 - Los Angeles<br /> <br /> Economist Randall Wray joins us for a macro-economic analysis of adverse economic trends at home and abroad amid dire predictions of a double-dip recession in the U.S. and defaults in Europe.

Marshall Auerback —  “How Japan Will Bounce Back” - Radio Free Dylan (Mar 18, 2011)<br /> <br /> Episode 41: How Japan Will Bounce Back with Marshall Auerback <br /> <br /> What does the earthquake mean to Japan’s fiscal future? Will one of the possible ripple effects of the disaster in Japan be a period of meaningful economic growth? Is the correct response to an environment of deprived economic activity to cut, or is it to invest and spend? <br /> <br /> Whether to cut or whether to spend is a raging debate, not only in Japan, but one that is active in our own country as well. Listen in as Dylan talks with Marshall Auerback about how Japan and the U.S. can begin to allocate capital in a way that solves problems, ultimately bringing advancement in infrastructure, society, and social structure. <br /> <br /> You can read Marshall’s most recent post at New Deal 2.0: <a href="http://www.newdeal20.org/2011/03/14/what-does-the-earthquake-mean-to-japans-fiscal-future-38551/">What Does The Earthquake Mean to Japan’s Fiscal Future?</a> <br /> <br /> <a href="http://www.dylanratigan.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/RFD-Ep-41-Marshall-Auerback.mp3">Download</a><br /> <br /> Marshall Auerback's website is: <a href="http://www.newdeal20.org/author/marshall-mauer/">New Deal 2.0</a><br /> <br /> BIO: Marshall Auerback is a Senior Fellow at the <a href="http://www.rooseveltinstitute.org/">Roosevelt Institute</a>.

James K. Galbraith — "A Progressive Economist" - ElectricPolitics (Sep 26, 2006)<br /> <br /> The venerable tradition of political economy hasn't died out (yet) but practitioners have become uncommonly hard to find. <a href="http://www.utexas.edu/lbj/faculty/galbraith.html">James K. Galbraith</a>, who penned a wonderfully sharp <a href="http://www.motherjones.com/commentary/columns/2006/05/predator_state.html">critique</a> of our economic system earlier this year in Mother Jones, and is at work on a larger version (as well as having another new <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Unbearable-Cost-Greenspan-Economics-Empire/dp/0230019013/sr=8-1/qid=1158853060/ref=pd_bbs_1/103-3490573-8835067?ie=UTF8&s=books">book</a> about to be published), brings iconoclastic, innovative sensibilities to a wide range of issues. I'm always delighted to hear reasonable solutions—even half-way solutions—that may be less well-known but are eminently bleeding-edge, especially from a committed progressive.
