He's a well known global economist, publishes in the FT, other publications, worked for the IMF, was MEP (Liberal party)and senator for several years.....he has an impressive cv.
He is very strong pro free-market and here in Belgium his interviews are numerous and on a very regular basis on TV, papers and magazines.
I'm not an economist, but for me he belongs to the free-marketista establishment. But he is a prof.in economics. So he knows his figures better than journalists and surprises sometimes with his conclusions. The struggle of man against tyranny is the struggle of memory against forgetting.(Kundera)
