The market confidence bugaboo

A specter is haunting Europe – the spectre of “market confidence.”

It may have been fear of communism that agitated governments when Karl Marx penned the opening line of his famous manifesto in 1848, but today it is the dread that market sentiment will turn against them and drive up the spreads on their bonds. Governments all over are being forced into premature fiscal retrenchment, even though unemployment remains very high and private demand shows few signs of life. Many are driven to undertake structural reforms that they don’t really believe in – just because it would look bad to markets to do otherwise.

Competitive in terms of discussion is it?

[Zach]

Looking forward to your upcoming book, Professor Rodrik! Can you give us any hints on the territory you are emphasizing, vis a vis your other discussions/writings? Globalization is a broad topic...

And I was hoping that you would address the recent comments by Andy Grove (on industrial policy) in your recent debate at the Economist online. However, I didn't notice anything...would you post something on that here? He really has some interesting thoughts on promoting the capacity to scale, and he certainly speaks from a lifetime of experience.

Thanks

The 66-year-old Garrett has been the Trojans’ athletic director for 17 years, but he received caustic criticism for his handling of USC’s scandals. The school didn’t say whether Garrett retired or had been fired.

Both Garrett and Haden are former USC football players. Garrett won the Heisman Trophy in 1965, while Haden was the Trojans’ starting quarterback for three years in the 1970s under coach John McKay.

Why are governments taking up such structural reforms just because it will look bad to the market place? Won't this keep us in a recession, or worse in the long-haul? Debt is skyrocketing because of this spend-our-way-out-of-trouble attitude.
