Christina D. Romer, Chair, Council of Economic Advisers, Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago Chicago, Illinois, September 24, 2009 The anniversary of the collapse of Lehman Brothers has spurred countless speeches, newspaper articles, and conferences, such as this one. I think many have rightly felt a need to reflect on the national economic nightmare that began last September. I am certainly no exception. But, I find myself looking at the past year from two very different perspectives. One is as a policymaker focused on current economic challenges and charged with helping to shape the policy response. The other is as an economic historian with a special interest in the Great Depression. | Oct 9, 2009, 10:44 AM | Curtis K | |||
