Paul Krugman

Paul Krugman’s provocative bi-weekly New York Times columns and his monthly columns in Fortune Magazine and Slate are keenly followed by millions of readers. A professor of Economics and International Studies at Princeton University and one of the world’s most respected economists, Krugman has been named America’s most important columnist by the Washington Monthly and columnist of the year by Editor and Publisher magazine. He visits the Revelle Forum to discuss his new book, The Great Unraveling: Losing Our Way In The New Century, which contains some of his most influential columns along with new commentary. Krugman chronicles how the boom economy of the 1990s unraveled: how exuberance gave way to pessimism, how the age of corporate heroes gave way to corporate scandals, and how fiscal responsibility collapsed. From his account of the secret history of the California energy crisis to his dissections of the current political environment, Krugman offers his own penetrating assessment about how the United States has lost its way.
