The new chief of the IMF, former French finance minister Strauss-Kahn, advocates more active fiscal policies. (IMF neoliberalism out, IMF Keynesianism back in.) See, his recent speech: http://www.imf.org/external/np/speeches/2008/021308.htm (In 1998 Strauss-Kahn collaborated with Oskar Lafontaine - then German finance minister, now leader of Die Linke party, on a project for a common European fiscal policy.)
