Fuhrer and Jane Sneddon Little* During the 1990s, the Federal Reserve has pursued its twin goals of price stability and steady employment growth with considerable success. But despite--or perhaps because of--this success, concerns about the pace of economic and productivity growth have attracted renewed attention. Many observers ruefully note that the average pace of GDP growth has remained below rates achieved in the 1960s and that a period of rapid investment in computers and other capital equipment has had disappointingly little impact on the productivity numbers.

DO NOT DELETE 4/12/2010 2:52 PM Michael Goldsmith Frederick Mark Gedicks The most fitting way to begin an essay in memory of Michael Goldsmith would be to tell one of his jokes, because Michael had a terrific sense of humor. The trouble is that, as I thought of all of the jokes that Michael had told me over the many years that we knew each other, I couldn’t actually remember one that I could safely tell in public, let alone in print. He did send a lot of them through his BYU Law School email account, however, so it makes me smile to think that somewhere in the vast reaches of the BYU server, these jokes are sitting there, like time bombs waiting to go off, which is its own kind of joke. The first and by far the most important thing to remember about Michael was his love and care for his family. Two of his sisters spoke at the funeral service in Albany, and it was immediately evident how much they loved their brother, and how good he had been to them and to their mother.

    CBCF CHAIR'S MESSAGE "AFoundation Expanding Opportunities" n he history of Black America is the history ofa people BTf who have overcome tremendous odds, triumphed over the adversity of slavery and segregation, and found opportunity in hardship. we come together for the 21st Annual Legislative Weekend, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation is rAsproud to celebrate these achievements and to help chart a course for the future that willenable us to continue to build on the successes of the past. The civil rights era inaugurated by Thurgood j^ Marshall and other champions of justice was marked by the \u25a0 passage of landmark legislation banning discrimination in employment, housing, public accommodations, and the voting booth. Thanks to this watershed period of progress in our Congressman Alan Wheat nation's recent past, an unprecedented number of Black Americans are now beginning to realize economic security. Yetrecent events have shown us that we cannot take these gains for granted. Although a vibrant and growing Black middle-class willcontinue to make headway in the 19905, a dismaying portion of our population faces a bleak future as a result of governmental indifference and neglect during the last ten years. An increasingly hostile Supreme Court has begun to chip away at the legal underpinnings of our nation's antibias safety net and the current Administration has shown itself willingto play racial politics withlegislative safeguards against discrimination. In the face of these new obstacles to progress, the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation is rising to the challenge of developing strategies to address the inequities that continue to confront modern society and to create new opportunities for an increasingly diverse Black American population.

  • Economic Policy for the Information Economy
    Macroeconomic Implications of the New Economy Martin Neil Baily Together with many policymakers and economists, I see in the 1990s expansion signs that new technologies that had been emerging for some time were finally paying off in stronger economic performance. I will use the expression “new economy” to describe this period, although I recognize the pitfalls in this name. New economy is probably too broad a term and implies both more change and more permanent change than actually took place. But “information economy” seems too narrow a term to describe the set of interrelated forces bringing about change in the economy, which include increased globalization, a more intense pressure of competition, the rapid development, adoption and use of information and communications technology (IT), and a favorable eco- nomic policy environment. The paper is a survey, drawing on a range of literature and covering a variety of topics. The goal is to give the reader a sense of some of the macroeconomic issues that have developed as a result of the sur- prising economic performance of the 1990s expansion, including some sense of what is known and not known about accelerated pro- ductivity growth, the key driver of the new economy. With the license of a survey paper, I have not tried to tell a linear story or link each section of the paper together, but there are, nonethe- less, two main themes. The first is to explore the relation between IT, on the one hand, and economic performance on the other. One view of 201 202 Martin Neil Baily the new economy is that it reflects an exogenous surge in innovation and capability in the high-tech sector.

    Placating a Pavement: How Wall Street Translated Economic Power into Political Power in the 1990s Christine Eggestad A Master’s Thesis Presented to The Department of Literature, Area Studies, and European Languages The Faculty of Humanities UNIVERSITY OF OSLO In partial fulfillment of the requirements for a Master’s Degree in American Studies Spring 2018 I II Placating a Pavement: How Wall Street Translated Economic Power into Political Power in the 1990s by Christine Eggestad III © Christine Eggestad 2018 Placating a Pavement: How Wall Street Translated Economic Power into Political Power in the 1990s Christine Eggestad http://www.duo.uio.no Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo IV V VI Abstract This Master’s thesis explores the question of how Wall Street, as a special interest group in American political life, was able to translate economic power into political power in the 1990s. The theoretical basis of the thesis is pluralism in policymaking – particularly biased pluralism: the observation that some groups in society have an amount of political influence that is disproportionate to their numbers. Moreover, the more recent body of scholarship in financialization theory serves as an important framework for this my analysis of the rise of Wall Street’s influence towards the end of the twentieth century.
