The World Affairs Council, in partnership with SU, presents Stiglitz, a 2001 recipient of the Nobel Prize in economics and professor at Columbia University. The talk will examine the long-term impacts of the war on the U.S. economy in the wake of the federal bailout and the influence on policy decisions for the next administration.
