As such\, his ideas have been much in demand following the Great East Japan Earthquake\, as Japanese policymakers and citizens alike look for answers and forecast s about the future of their nation's economy.\n\nChicagoans are in luck\, then\, as Dr. Itoh comes to the Union League Club to speak about the surpr ising resilience of the Japanese economy\, and the prospects for the futur e of the country as it rebuilds and recovers. This is a can't-miss lecture for anyone concerned about the effects of crises\, both natural and manma de\, on the state of their country's economy.\n\nDate\nTuesday\, August 23 \, 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM\n\n<a href="http://www.des07.com/t/20130390/59024229 9/54524978/0/?c4e129f6=Y2hpY2dqIDA3LzI4LzIwMTEgMTc6MDA6Mzk%3d&amp\;x=75173 9f1" target="_blank"></a>\n\nPlace\nUnion League Club of Chicago\n65 W.
