Niesr Podcast

On 29/11/16 the National Institute held a conference entitled: "Rethinking Macroeconomics" to start a discussion about what needs to be done to transform macroeconomics back into a useful policy science. Twelve panellists, divided in four sessions, explored the big questions on the horizons with the help of a very engaged audience. For this podcast NIESR's Paola Buonadonna spoke to journalist and author Paul Mason, Soumaya Keynes (The Economist), Doyne Farmer (Professor of mathematics, Oxford), David Tuckett(Director of the Centre for Decision-Making Uncertainty, UCL), macroeconomist Roger Farmer (UCL, Warwick and NIESR) and Angus Armstrong, Director of Macroeconomics at NIESR.
