&lt;p&gt;Harvard historian Niall Ferguson argues that Barack Obama's plans to increase income taxes for wealthy Americans could lead to an economic climate similar to the "stagflation" period of the 1970's.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;-----&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Professor and historian Niall Ferguson asks what the ramifications of the subprime crisis will be in the realm of grand strategy and politics.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Is this an historical turning point, marking a decisive shift in financial power from West to East? Or are rumours of the death of the dollar and the decline of American empire exaggerated? - Hoover Institution&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Niall Ferguson, MA, D.Phil., is the Laurence A. Tisch Professor of History at Harvard University. He is a resident faculty member of the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies. He is also a Senior Research Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford University, and a Senior Fellow of the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="post_content"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Complete video at: &lt;a href="http://fora.tv/2008/10/29/Mark_Thirlwell_The_End_of_the_Free_Market"&gt;fora.tv&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Australian economist Mark Thirlwell argues that September 15, 2008 - the day the U.S. government declined to rescue ailing financial power Lehman Brothers - may mark the birth of a new phase for the global economy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;-----&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The state is back as a major economic player. The current financial crisis has prompted a tsunami of government intervention in rich world financial markets: from regulatory bans on short-selling though to massive public sector bailouts, loan and deposit guarantees, and a series of increasingly dramatic nationalizations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The severity of the crisis has undermined the reputation of Wall Street and left global financial capitalism as a badly tarnished brand.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, the shifting geography of international economic and financial power means that a series of state-controlled actors - including Sovereign Wealth Funds, State-Owned Banks and State-Owned Enterprises, and National Oil Companies - have become important players on the world economic stage.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mark Thirlwell looks at the resumed battle for the Commanding Heights of the world economy, and asks whether the apparent victory for the free market secured in the 1980s and 1990s is now about to be overturned in favor of the state - The Lowy Institute for International Policy&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mark Thirlwell, Program Director International Economy at the Lowy Institute for International Policy, is a graduate of Cambridge University and has an MPhil degree in economics from Oxford. He has a postgraduate qualification in applied finance at Macquarie University.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thirlwell began his career as an economist in the Bank of England's international divisions, where he focused mainly on emerging market issues. He also spent some time in the Bank's UK structural economic analysis division. Thirlwell subsequently joined JP Morgan, where he was a vice president in the economic research department with responsibility for Central and Eastern Europe. Before joining the Lowy Institute, Mark was senior economist at the Australian Export Finance and Insurance Corporation from 1999 to 2003, where he worked on country risk issues, with a particular emphasis on East Asia.Thirlwell became an Australian citizen in November 2001.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Complete video at: &lt;a href="http://fora.tv/2008/10/20/Naomi_Klein_and_Joseph_Stiglitz_on_Economic_Power"&gt;fora.tv&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz criticizes American financial leadership in the run-up to the current economic crisis, and declares free-market fundamentalism "dead" as a guiding principle of the U.S. economy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;-----&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What is the role of the U.S. in the disposition of the world's economic and environmental resources? How are financial markets best defended from economic shock? Does liberalization ensure prosperity?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Journalist Naomi Klein speaks with economists Joseph Stiglitz and Hernando de Soto in a conversation moderated by David Harvey, Distinguished Professor of Anthropology at the Graduate Center - City University of New York (CUNY)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Joseph Stiglitz was chief economist at the World Bank until January 2000. Before that he was the chairman of President Clinton's Council of Economic Advisers. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics in 2001. He is currently a finance and economics professor at Columbia University. He is the author of Globalization and Its Discontents and The Roaring Nineties.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes we did!  That's the cry we're hearing from around the country this week, as America elected Barack Obama the next president of the United States.  This week, Bobby Kennedy and Mike Papantonio are talking about this historic election, and what we can expect from President Obama.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;MITT ROMNEY
&lt;br /&gt;Speech
&lt;br /&gt;Hudsonville, MI - 01/11/08&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;MITT ROMNEY: I think the difference between Michigan's one state recession and Katrina, was that in the case of Katrina Washington finally did something. And I want to make sure that in this case, Washington finally does something. &lt;/p&gt;
