Urban dynamics: learning from integrated models and big data (DYNURBAN)
Date du début: 1 août 2016, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2021,
City growth is driven by a combination of systematic determinants and shocks. Random growth models predict realistic city size distributions but ignore, for instance, the strong empirical association between human capital and city growth. Models with systematic determinants predict degenerate size distributions. We will develop an integrated model that combines systematic and random determinants t ...

A Comprehensive Approach to School Choice and Education (CompSCHoice)
Date du début: 1 août 2015, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2020,
School choice is one of the most hotly debated policies in education. Advocates argue that school choice allows equal access to high quality schooling for all. High-income families have always had more choice, either through residential choice or through enrolment in private schools. Therefore increased choice should also improve equity by allowing minority and low-income students to choose too. O ...

Estimation of General Equilibrium Labor Market Search Models (ESEMO)
Date du début: 1 mars 2012, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,
"My proposal deals with the estimation of Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium models with important heterogeneity at the level of firms and households and frictions in the labor market. In the estimation I will exploit mixed frequency data (monthly, quarterly and annual) available in different countries. I will also efficiently take care of possible missing values in the data. This might requir ...

"Spatial spikes: bridging geography and economics to study distance, agglomeration, and policy" (SPIKES)
Date du début: 1 mars 2011, Date de fin: 29 févr. 2016,
"Economic geographers and geographical economists have been using different methods in order to analyse the location of economic activity. These different approaches to the same topic have, paradoxically, resulted in very similar geographical configurations: a ‘spiky’ world dominated by large metropoli, where intermediate and peripheral locations tend to matter less and less. This apparent similar ...

Estimation of Nonlinear Models with Unobserved Heterogeneity (ENMUH)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2010, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2015,
Modern economic research emphasizes heterogeneity in various dimensions, such as individual preferences or firms’ technology. From an empirical perspective, the presence of unobserved heterogeneity (to the econometrician) creates challenging identification and estimation problems. In this proposal we explore these issues in a context where repeated observations are available for the same individua ...

Likelihood-based estimation of non-linear and non-normal DSGE models (EDSGEL)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2015,
"DSGE models are the standard tool of quantitative macroeconomics. We use them to measure economics phenomena and to provide policy advice. However, since Kydland and Prescott s 1982, the profession has fought about how to take these models to the data. Kydland and Prescott proposed to calibrate their model. Why? Macroeconomists could not compute their models efficiently. Moreover, the techniques ...

Longitudinal Enhancement and Access imProvement of the SHARE infrastructure (SHARE_LEAP)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2010,
Population ageing is among the most pressing challenges of the 21st century in Europe. Addressing this challenge scientifically demands an infrastructure of micro data of the changing health, economic and social living conditions of individuals as they go through the ageing process. SHARE, the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe, is an infrastructure of multidisciplinary, longitudina ...

Upgrading the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe – preparatory phase (SHARE-PREP)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2008, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2009,
The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) has been selected by the ESFRI roadmap process as one of the 35 crucial pillars of the European Research Area. This project will prepare a major upgrade of SHARE for all 27 EU members plus associated Switzerland and Israel during the decade 2010-2020. SHARE builds an infrastructure of micro data necessary to understand individual and so ...
