The Growth of Cryptography
February 8, 2011
It’s not every day that Euclid appears in public with “Alice and Bob,†but in a lecture spanning a
few thousand years, Ronald Rivest summons these and other notables in his history of cryptography.
While citing milestones of code-making and breaking, Rivest also brings his audience up to date on
the latest systems for securing information and communication networks, which owe much to his
own research.

"Cryptography increases transparency and verifiability. Maybe large prime numbers have a role to
play in our democracy down the road a bit."

Economic Policy Challenges: Microeconomics and Regulation
January 27, 2011
Given its contributions to policy and practice in such key sectors as health care, industrial
organization and technological innovation, and energy and the environment, microeconomics may not
be getting the kind of respect, or at least attention, it deserves, these panelists suggest.

"It’s frankly amazing when you look across energy and environmental policy the extent to which policy
is still inefficiently pursuing goals that don’t make much sense. The problems really are political,
not technical, and come from the fact that this stuff tends to be on the second page of
the business section.
