Forever Blowing Bubbles: Asset bubbles, economic policy and sustainability

Leading financial economist and historian Professor Michael Hudson has just finished touring Australia from October 12 – 27, 2009.

Professor Hudson was one of twelve economists recognised for predicting the GFC. He is a government advisor to many nations, and is fast gaining a reputation in policy circles as the go-to man in GFC hotspots. This has seen him visit Iceland and Latvia this year to assist policy developments. From Mexico to China to the depths of Wall St, Hudson is an insider to the latest global policy trends.

Prof Hudson was the Chief Economic Advisor to Dennis Kucinich in the recent US Presidential Campaign.

Read his bio outlining his extensive history in economic policy circles and his prominent position in the global media marketplace.

After his presentation Professor Hudson was joined by Associate Professor Steve Keen and Crikey financial journalist and business commentator Adam Schwab for a panel discussion moderated by Centre for Policy Development Director Miriam Lyons.

Financial warfare: All to the creditors - Nothing to the debtors

Dr. Hudson is President of The Institute for the Study of Long-Term Economic Trend, a Wall Street Financial Analyst, Distinguished Research Professor of Economics at the University of Missouri, Kansas City and author of "Super-Imperialism: The Economic Strategy of American Empire".
