Everything Is Inflation and Inflation Is Everything

Go deep on one of the most unusual and dynamic periods in modern history with UChicago Booth School of Business professor and renowned economist Austan Goolsbee. Who “owns” inflation? The White House? The Fed? Congress? Why did a global pandemic and the ensuing supply chain issues impact nations differently, and how did political systems, energy policies and economic plans differ toward that end? Most importantly, what does this all mean for Americans checking out at the grocery stores and facing tuition bills? This and more at the IOP’s latest pop up event.

Moderated by Hal Weitzman, executive director for intellectual capital at the Booth School of Business.

  • Austan Goolsbee Economist, Robert P. Gwinn Professor of Economics, The University of Chicago Booth School of Business; Former Chair, Council of Economic Advisers
  • Hal Weitzman Adjunct Assistant Professor of Behavioral Science, Executive Director for Intellectual Capital, University of Chicago Booth School of Business
