Monthly Commentaries by Michael Boskin and Hans-Werner Sinn

Michael Boskin, currently Professor of Economics at Stanford University and a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, was Chairman of President George H. W. Bush’s Council of Economic Advisors, 1989-1993.
Hans-Werner Sinn is Professor of Economics and Finance, University of Munich, and President of the Ifo Institute.

Will the euro displace the dollar as the world’s principal reserve currency? Should the European Central Bank focus on growth, as America's Fed does? Which labor market model is most conducive to prosperity? How should financial markets be re-regulated without stifling innovation?

Two of the world’s most distinguished political economists, Michael Boskin, a former Chairman of the US Council of Economic Advisors and currently Professor of Economics at Stanford University, and Hans-Werner Sinn of Germany’s Ifo Institute and Munich University, have teamed up to provide Project Syndicate with exclusive monthly commentaries on Europe, America, and the World. Deeply informed and bracingly prescient, Boskin and Sinn are essential reading for anyone who wants to comprehend the complex relationship between political decisions and economic performance.
