Paul Krugman on Eurozone: “The Whole Thing Could Fall Apart in a Matter of Months”

The European economic crisis is expected to top the agenda at the G8 meeting tomorrow at Camp David. In Greece, voters will soon head to the polls for another round of elections which will be viewed by many as a referendum on the Euro. Our guest today, Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman, warns the current bank run in Greece could spiral into the end of the Eurozone. “It is really quite shocking,” Krugman says. “I hate to sound apocalyptic.” Meanwhile, France’s new finance minister has reiterated that the country’s new socialist government will not ratify the European Union’s fiscal pact calling for greater austerity.
Paul Krugman is a Nobel Prize-winning economist and op-ed columnist for the New York Times. Professor of Economics at Princeton University and Centenary Professor at the London School of Economics. Author of numerous books, including The Return of Depression Economics and the Crisis of 2008. His new book “End this Depression Now!” has just been published.

NEW: THE EXAMINATION PROJECT
Over the past year NYTX has been organizing large amounts of data to aid critical media literacy and to "press the press" on important matters that affect us all. Our "eXamination" project is a work in progress. It applies filters to the New York Times for fact-checking, source analysis, words, ads, assessment of NYT editors and writers, and much more. It presents a variety of frameworks through which to understand powerful media. Visit the project now. To support our work please make a donation.
