"The Economists' Voice" on the financial crises

A very timely special issue of The Economists' Voice (September 2008) is entitled "Financial Regulation, Financial Crisis, and Bailouts". Included are the following articles:

• "Investment Banking Regulation after Bear Stearns" (Dwight M. Jaffee and Mark Perlow);
• "Why Paulson is Wrong" (Luigi Zingales);
• "Dr. StrangeLoan: or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Financial Collapse" (Aaron S. Edlin); and
• "Questioning the Treasury's $700 Billion Blank Check: An Open Letter to Secretary Paulson" (Aaron S. Edlin).

The Economists' Voice, from the Berkeley Electronic Press project, is hailed as "the decade's most successful publishing innovation for professional economists..... Regular contributors include five Nobel Prize winners, three past chairs of the President's Council of Economic Advisors, public intellectuals like Paul Krugman and Richard Posner, and a veritable "Who's Who" of modern economic theory and policy. The Economists' Voice is a source of expertise directed at once at the professional economist, policy makers, students, and anyone curious about the economy today."
