I am hoping that some members of OPE-L may be willing to comment on recent conferences. At the URPE conference, Michael Perleman delivered the David Gordon lecture; Fred Moseley and Gil Skillman debated about value theory; and Cyrus Bina and George Caffentzis discussed US foreign policy and oil rent too (I imagine). Love to hear about how these went. I think Fred's Mt Holyoke group discussed money this summer. I'd love to hear about commodity money, fictitious capital, gold, central bank policy, central bank holdings of govt paper (note the Restall piece on China's holding of US govt paper), international monetary chaos. I always learn a great deal from what Martha Campbell writes. Does Martha or any other participant (not sure who was there) want to share their reflections on what seems to have been a very important conference indeed? Share the wealth, share the knowledge! Yours, Rakesh
