Description:

The Jackson School of Global Affairs and the Yale Poynter Fellowship will co-host a visit by Wolfgang Munchau, director and co-founder of Eurointelligence, a service that provides daily information about the euro area, targeted at investors and policy makers.

Munchau is also the European columnist for the New Statesman, and previously an associate editor and columnist for the Financial Times.  

Munchau was one of the founding members of Financial Times Deutschland, the German language business daily, where he served as deputy editor from 1999 until 2001, and as editor-in-chief from 2001 until 2003. He previously worked as foreign correspondent in Washington, D.C. and Brussels for the Times, and in Frankfurt for the FT.

His latest book, “Kaput,” published by Swift Press, is about the rise and decline of the German economy.

The event is open to the general public, but registration is required.
