Interesting Happenings at Bretton Woods

Steve Clement's The Washington Note is one of the nicer political blogs to read.  The political arc of Steve's life is similar to mine, starting as a Nixon republican and heading further left than "serious" Democrats nowadays.

He gives good coverage of INET's Bretton Woods Forum this year.  There are lots of interesting videos there to watch, including Soros, and Lord Adair Turner, who Steve praises as the Lord Keynes of our time.
Turner discusses what an economy should achieve, and that it must be concerned with quality of life and full employment.

Actually much of the conference can be watched online from INET's site.
