RISk and uncertainty in developing and Implementing Climate change pOlicies (RISICO)

Date du début: 1 juin 2014, Date de fin: 31 mai 2019,

"Uncertainty is pervasive in all aspects of climate change. Although this is beyond dispute, the vast majority of research assessing climate ignores uncertainty, in large part because of the technical complexities involved. The present project aims at advancing substantially the way we conceptualize, model and frame the climate change policy making process, focusing on the central role of uncertai ...

Subjective well-being and fertility (SWELL-FER)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2013, Date de fin: 31 mars 2018,

The project is about subjective well-being (SWB) and demographic behaviour, with a particular focus on fertility in advanced societies, across time and space. The project is motivated by the fact that European and other advanced industrialized countries have for decades experienced below-replacement fertility levels, which are now posing dramatic challenges to ageing population structures. Cross-s ...

Reasoning About Strategic Interaction and Emotions (STRATEMOTIONS)

Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2018,

"I propose to develop a general framework to analyze the dynamics of social and economic interaction between intelligent agents, who may nonetheless be affected by their emotions and exhibit time inconsistent preferences. A crucial aspect of the analysis is modelling how agents form and change their beliefs about the environment and about each other, including beliefs about beliefs. The reason is ...

Rethinking sources and consequences of business cycles (RESOCONBUCY)

Date du début: 1 déc. 2012, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2017,

"Up until 2006 most macro-economists held the view that combination of technology and monetary factors could explain the bulk of business cycles, and that overall business cycle fluctuations were not a major source of concern for policy (at least in developed economies and in the post-war). The 2007-2009 crisis and its aftermath has radically shaken this view. First, most industrialized countries ...

New directions in Bayesian Nonparametrics (N-BNP)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2012, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,

The popularity of Bayesian nonparametric (BNP) inference is rapidly growing within both the academic community and practitioners. Indeed the BNP viewpoint naturally allows for rich and flexible probabilistic modeling and, via conditional (or posterior) distributions, for accurate function estimation, most notably of probability distributions, regression functions and hazard rates. After de Finetti ...

Policy Design and Evaluation Research in Developing Countries (PODER)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2013, Date de fin: 31 août 2017,

"Good policy design requires understanding of how agents respond to incentives and how they interact through market and non-market institutions. New approaches to policy design have recently emerged. These rely on controlled experiments as well as analysis of natural policy experiments. They allow us not only to evaluate whether a policy has been successful but also to test the theoretical channel ...

"Not all new ideas are equally valuable from a social perspective. As the readers of this document know all too well, “picking the winners” is challenging because innovations have highly uncertain outcomes.The aim of this research project is to develop a general theoretical framework to investigate the design of institutions and mechanisms for evaluating new ideas and innovations.

Social Innovation and Civic Engagement (ITSSOIN)

Date du début: 1 mars 2014, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2017,

Research has made seminal contributions to describing the size and scope of the Third Sector, including volunteering as an essential component. However, most of the research has focused on economic benefits (revenues, employment etc.). We highly value these efforts, but posit that the core contribution and main impact of the sector on socio-economic development lies in the creation of social innov ...

"We plan to study the implications of financial market imperfections for four main questions.First, how do financial imperfections affect the optimal conduct of monetary and exchange rate policy in open economies? A key insight is that we characterize financial frictions as endogenous and only occasionally binding. This can have important implications for the optimal conduct of stabilization polic ...

"The aim of EINITE is to clarify the dynamics of economic inequality in Europe from the late Middle Ages up until the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. Very little data about economic inequality during such an early period is available today. Apart from some studies focussed on single years and small areas (usually only one city or a village), the only European region which has been the obje ...
