Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium: papers for debate

 Para os "drogados" em debates de políticas econômicas dos "grandes". Todos os papers a ser apresentados e discutidos em Jackson Hole estão aqui. Devo dizer, para meu desconforto, que eles estão falando da economia global, da qual o Brasil está afastado a anos-luz de distância. Só somos afetados pelos efeitos que essas orientações de política econômica provocam no mundo. Estamos singularmente isolados do debate relevante que ocorre no mundo em termos de economia e de geopolítica. Um futuro governo brasileiro só se aproximaria desse universo se tivesse economistas da qualidade de Persio Arida, Armínio Fraga, Pedro Malan, Nelson Pessoa, Marcos Lisboa no comando da economia. Teremos?
