Public economics and political economy
The "Public economics and political economy" group gathers researchers working in this field and more specifically on the following topics: taxation, social protection, health care, education, public goods, externalities, environmental policies, regulation, electoral competition, lobbying etc...
It represents an opportunity for researchers interested in this field to interact together and for younger scholars to get some feedback on their projects.
The main event of this group consists in a workshop taking place approximately every two weeks.
