发端于美国的次贷危机正在一步步演化和扩大为一场全球金融危机，美国新任总统奥巴马将如何应对金融危机？是否将延续前任的经济政策，抑或改变思路出台新政？奥巴马应对金融危机的能力和新举措已成为国际各界关注的焦点。本次讲座中，Jim将和大家一起探讨美国政府采取的新政策是否能够应对金融危机。

“US newspapers carry headlines such as "In a Volatile Time, Obama Strikes a New Tone for Crisis", "U.S. Plan Seeking Expanded Power in Seizing Firms", and "Rescue Plan, With Fine Print, Dazzles Wall Street". We'll take a look at the Obama administration response to the current economic crisis, and examine the views of several economists on the US response. We will also look at international response to the crisis and to the US stimulus plan.”
