Abstract
Professor Vasco Carvalho was asked to give a keynote address at the 2019 ESCoE Conference on Economic Measurement.
Description
The "Transmission Mechanisms and Economic Policy" theme at the Cambridge-INET Institute brings together researchers conducting fundamental research in macroeconomics.
Economic policy is aimed at socially sustainable growth, yet scientific evidence suggests our economy has physical limits. Our atmosphere and energy supplies are almost certain constraints on future output.
Former PhD student, Jasmine Xiao (Assistant Professor of Economics, Notre Dame) and current PhD student Lidia Smitkova will both present their work at the 26th CEPR European Summer Symposium in International Macroeconomics (ESSIM) 2018, in Oslo.
