Harvard Economist: 'The Crisis Isn't Over in the US or Europe'
Reinhart and Rogoff's "This Time Is Different" is a very good read. Don't let the fact that they are Harvard economists dissuade you. They use empirical data to sniff out the truth, which puts them in the extreme minority amongst the status quo and academia. Unlike their peers, they are not government apologists or propagandist mouthpieces.

Niall Ferguson again
I've posted about Niall Ferguson, Harvard Professor and historian, several times and this is a good interview on US fiscal policies, sovereign debt crisis, financial, political, and tax reform.

“Fiscal tightening is baked in the cake. Tax increases are coming and coming soon… The US has a kind of stay of execution while the European crisis unfolds, but at some point the nasty fiscal arithmetic will get everyone, including the U.S… Treasuries are a safe haven the way Pearl Harbor was a safe haven in 1941. It’s safe until it’s not safe anymore.”

The Great Repression
Wow, I agree with a Harvard economist, as he bashes Keynesian economics.
