We analyze the redistributional (dis)advantages of a minimum wage over income taxation in competitive labor markets without imposing assumptions on the (in)efficiency of labor rationing.

On essayera de montrer que de nombreux problèmes de statistiques nécessitent de dépasser le cadre Euclidien (Tomographie, Astrophysique ..). Dans cet exposé on se propose de montrer que l'on peut récupérer beaucoup de résultats obtenues grâce à l'analyse de Fourier, si l'on travaille sur un espace...

We estimate food waste at the individual household level indirectly using a stochastic production frontier approach. The estimated average percentage of waste is about 30%-32%. In addition to a baseline model, we also develop a second model that tackle the issue of missing information on physical...

We study robust/adversarial information design in global games of regime change. We show that the optimal policy coordinates all market participants on the same course of action. Importantly, while it removes any \strategic uncertainty," it preserves heterogeneity in \structural uncertainty". When...
