Economics serving society

March 2011 - “The G20 and recovery and beyond” : J-P Fitoussi, J. Stiglitz and the Paris Group

A group of ’experts’, with no commitments other that of being citizens of the world, decided to meet to reflect on what could be done, hoping that from their reflection some useful recommendations to the powerful of this world would emerge.
This group, which christened itself the Paris Group, has been constituted at the invitation of the President of The French Republic, who also presides over the
destiny of the G20 this year. It comprises individuals with the highest level of expertise in the subjects confronting the G20 and with a commitment to working to ensure the improvement in the system of global economic governance.
This e-book contains a summary of the discussion between the members of the group and the preparatory notes which have been written by them.
