Progressive Monetary Policy in a Time of Uncertainty: The Collected Lectures of Lael Brainard by Lael Brainard

The Center for Popular Democracy heralded her as “one of the strongest and loudest voices advocating for policies that working families across the U.S. need”, CNBC praised her “deep knowledge of fiscal and monetary policy. Her comments on the state of the economy … carry weight on Wall Street”, and the Financial Times remarked that “her steadfast calls for continued economic stimulus have burnished her credentials among pro-worker groups.” Lael Brainard is a leading American economist and member of the U.S. Federal Reserve's Board of Governors.

‘Progressive Monetary Policy in a Time of Uncertainty’ brings together an intriguing collection of her economic insights with over sixty (60) of her most important speeches as a member of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors.

The lectures, handpicked by the Ashfield Journal of Progressive Economic Studies editorial staff, cover everything from the economic impact of COVID-19, income inequality, the threat of climate change, the urgent need to promote diversity, urban investment, the rise of the ‘gig economy’, digital currencies, the regulation of the financial sector, and much more.
