Discorso Bruno Leoni
Hosted by Istituto Bruno Leoni
The Istituto Bruno Leoni will host the fifth edition of its annual Discorso Bruno Leoni lecture on Monday 7th February 2011 (6pm) in Milan, Italy (Sala Tiepolo of Palazzo Clerici, Via Clerici, 5). Every year, these lectures are addressed by a noteworthy figure in the economic or policy world, and deal with the most significant issues of the day from a liberal, free-market perspective. This year, the lecture will focus on “Towards an exit strategy: Rules or discretion?” and will be delivered by John B. Taylor, professor of economics at Stanford University and senior fellow at the Hoover Institution.
John B. Taylor has also been a professor of Economics at Princeton University and Columbia University. He is renowned for his research on the main lines of modern monetary theory, whose results still influence the work of the central banks and financial market analysts. Likewise, Prof Taylor is well-known for his so-called “Taylor rule,” a monetary-policy rule that stipulates how much the central bank would or should change the nominal interest rate in response to inflation signals.
