Readings for 10.29 - 11.06 (yes, it's November)

For Tuesday:

NYTimes on Ben Bernanke.  Be sure to click "read more" at the bottom of the column.

On Bernanke's recommendations for regulating banks.

Here is a summary of what congress wants to do.

Financial Times columnist Martin Wolf has some suggestions.

A lot of this is still about the banking crisis and not as much about the Federal Reserve System. We are at the intersection of chapters 12 and 13. But I feel that this is worth spending one more class on.

Tuesday's class: discussion of the above articles using chapter 13.

For Wednesday: Questions on 13

For Thursday, Read chapter 14


For Fri, TBA, but probably short writing assignment
