Offers fiscal policy options that can complement automatic stabilizers and counter-cyclical monetary policy to combat recessions. It argues for an independent fiscal policy board or the Federal Reserve to decide changes in the magnitude of Congress' fiscal policy package of stimulus or restraint.

Drawing on the most prominent research in the field, this timely book offers bold new fiscal policies that can complement current automatic stabilizers and counter-cyclical monetary policy to help combat recessions. Dr. Seidman argues for an independent fiscal policy board or the Federal Reserve to decide changes in the magnitude of Congress's fiscal policy package of stimulus or restraint, with recommendations going into effect immediately, subject only to Congressional override.
