Hoover fellows John Taylor and Lee Ohanian hosted a conference entitled “Restoring Robust Economic Growth in America” at the Hoover Institution on Friday, December 2, 2011. George P. Shultz gave the opening remarks, followed by special guest Alan Greenspan of Greenspan Associates, who served as chairman of the Federal Reserve of the United States for twenty years. This conference brought together economists with extensive research and policy experience to address issues such as unemployment, policy uncertainty, long-term reforms, and monetary and fiscal problems. Developing a policy strategy to deal with the problem of slow growth and unemployment requires both answers to these questions and a diagnosis of the problem, as noted by conference participants.
