Intelligence Squared debate: Can central banks print prosperity?

Around the world, central banks like the U.S. Federal Reserve adopt policies they hope will improve their economies in the short term.

But will sustained economic growth result? In this new debate from the Intelligence Squared series, financial experts and economists debate this notion: Central banks can print prosperity.

On the "Yes" side, Roger Bootle of Capital Economics and Simon Johnson of MIT, who was also former chief economist of the International Monetary Fund.

For the "No" side, Edward Conard of the American Enterprise Institute and Bain Capital and Andrew Huszar of Rutgers Business School.
