Larry Summers: 2013 IMF talk
IMF Fourteenth Annual Research Conference “So, my lesson from this crisis, and my overarching lesson, which I have to say I think the world has under-internalized, is that it is not over until it is over, and that time is surely not right now, and cannot be judged relative to the extent of financial panic.

韦森：全球低通胀低利率低增长的真实原因——源于货币“革命”的视角
