CESS: Roberto Weber (U Zurich) on 10/03 Tue
by Judit Lafferthon 28 Sep '23

28 Sep '23

Dear All, Please find below the invitation to the IN PERSON CEU Economic Seminar Series (CESS) presentation. On Tuesday, Roberto Weber<https://www.econ.uzh.ch/en/people/faculty/weber.html> (U of Zurich) will talk about: 'Continuous Gender Identity and Economic Decision Making' (with Anne Ardila Brenøe, Lea Heursen, and Eva Ranehill) Time and venue: October 03, Tuesday, 11.15am - 12.30pm, at Quellenstrasse 51 (Vienna), QS B-505. ABSTRACT: Economic research on gender gaps in preferences and economic outcomes has identified gaps with respect to sex-a binary classification as either a "man" or "woman." We investigate the value of incorporating a continuous measure of self-reported gender identity into economics by exploring whether gender identity correlates with variation in economic decisions and outcomes beyond the explanatory power of binary sex. We validate a novel and simple measure of continuous gender identity (CGI) that correlates with measures used in gender research outside economics. We employ this validated measure in five datasets (N=8,213) measuring several dimensions of economic preferences and educational and labor market outcomes. Our results yield mixed evidence that CGI correlates with economic behaviors and outcomes when accounting for binary sex: CGI has little relationship with incentivized preference measures, but is correlated with a number of unincentivized preference measures and with educational choices and labor market outcomes that are stereotypically associated with females. Our results suggest that incorporating self-reported measures of gender identity may have some value for understanding economic behaviors and for targeting policy. Please sign up for the seminar at this link<https://forms.office.com/e/N0RqvNyCiX> till 12pm, the day before the seminar!

CESS: Philip Bond (U Washington) on 09/26 Tue
by Judit Lafferthon 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

Dear All, Please find below the invitation to the IN PERSON CEU Economic Seminar Series (CESS) presentation. On Tuesday, Philip Bond<https://foster.uw.edu/faculty-research/directory/philip-bond/> (U of Washington) will talk about “ESG: A Panacea for Market Power” (with Doron Levit). Time and venue: September 26, Tuesday, 11.15am – 12.30pm, in B505. Abstract We study the equilibrium effects of the S dimension of ESG in a model of imperfect competition in labor (and product) markets. All else equal, a profit maximizing firm can benefit from adopting ESG policies that give a competitive edge in attracting workers; `Doing Well by Doing Good' applies in our setting. ESG policies are strategic complements, and in equilibrium, they are adopted by all firms resulting in higher worker welfare but lower shareholder value. Thus, profit maximizing firms benefit from coordinating on low impact ESG policies, raising anti-trust concerns from the adoption of industry-wide ESG standards. A purposeful firm (led by a socially conscious board) benefits from such ESG policies, and imperfect competition between purposeful firms obtains the first best in equilibrium. Thus, the social purpose of the corporation is a panacea to excessive market power. More broadly, our analysis relates the adoption of ESG policies to the nature of competition between firms and their model of corporate governance. Please sign up for the seminar at this link<https://forms.office.com/e/N0RqvNyCiX> till 12pm, the day before the seminar!

Invitation | Webinar with Prof. Slavo Radosevic
by office＠produktivitaetsrat.at 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

[Eventlogo] Webinar with Prof. Slavo Radosevic Institutionalising experimentation in innovation policy: challenges and solutions in upscaling Dear Sir or Madam, We have the pleasure of inviting you to a webinar with Prof. Slavo Radosevic, UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies, which the Austrian Productivity Board will host on 11 October 2023. Title “Institutionalising experimentation in innovation policy: challenges and solutions in upscaling” Abstract The webinar addresses one of the major weaknesses of transformative innovation policy: the lack of solutions for institutionalising experimentation beyond pilots. To address this issue, we explore a) pilots and policy labs as two potential approaches to experimentation, b) the issue of institutionalising experimentation in the regional context through individual agencies or bottom-up, self-organised stakeholder involvement, and c) methodological issues in implementing partnerships for regional innovation (PRI). In our argumentation, we draw on the experiences from the EU regional innovation policy, particularly from the Slovenian research and innovation partnerships (SRIP) and regions in Denmark, the Netherlands and Sweden. Although they are cases from institutionally different contexts, they are all explicitly or implicitly grounded in the ‘learning networks’ approach. Our analysis suggests that: a) pilots and policy labs as the mainstream institutional solutions to experimentation, at least in the context of the EU regional innovation policy, face serious challenges, b) transformative regional policies require complementary national or regional government-facilitated approaches complemented by bottom-up driven partnerships for regional innovation, and c) organisationally these partnerships can build on the accumulated experience of network-based programs. We provide tentative advice on how policies should be designed to increase the chance of upscaling. Date Wednesday, 11 October 2023 | Start: 04:00 PM (CEST) | End: 05:00 PM (CEST) Venue The event is planned online via Webex.

WU Economics Research Seminar, 4.10.2023, 4.30 pm to 6 pm, Christoph Kuzmics (University of Graz)
by Oberhofer, Harald 26 Sep '23

26 Sep '23

Dear colleagues, The Department of Economics cordially invites you to the WU Economics Research Seminar on Wednesday, October 4th, with Christoph Kuzmics (University of Graz) on "Communication, Renegotiation and Coordination with Private Values" Abstract: An equilibrium is communication-proof if it is unaffected by new opportunities to communicate and renegotiate. We characterize the set of equilibria of coordination games with pre-play communication in which players have private preferences over the feasible coordinated outcomes. Communication-proof equilibria provide a narrow selection from the large set of qualitatively diverse Bayesian Nash equilibria in such games. Under a communication-proof equilibrium, players never miscoordinate, play their jointly preferred outcome whenever there is one, and communicate only the ordinal part of their preferences. Moreover, such equilibria are robust to changes in players' beliefs, interim Pareto efficient, and evolutionarily stable. Date: Wednesday, October 4th Time: 4.30 to 6 pm (CET) Location: building D4, ground floor, room D4.0.127 With best regards, Harald Oberhofer --- Univ.-Prof. Dr. Harald Oberhofer Department of Economics WU Vienna University of Economics and Business Phone: +43/1/31336-4984 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wu.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wu.ac.at> Webpage: https://www.wu.ac.at/ie/mitarbeiter/harald-oberhofer/ Austrian Institute of Economic Research (WIFO) Phone: +43/1/7982601-468 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wifo.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wifo.ac.at> Webpage: http://www.wifo.ac.at/harald_oberhofer

Oktober 2023, 14:00 – 15:00 Uhr Ort: Online-Event (Zoom) Registrierung: https://www.eui.eu/events?id=563210 Abstract: This paper investigates the positive international spillover effects of non-discriminatory product regulations, such as quality standards. It will incorporate regulations into a multi-country general equilibrium framework with firm heterogeneity and variable mark-ups. The research models regulations as a fixed cost that any firm selling to an economy must pay, consistent with stylised facts that are presented. It is demonstrated that, in the presence of variable mark-ups, the fixed cost generates a positive spillover effect on the rest of the world, as it induces entry of high-quality firms and it improves the terms of trade of the non-imposing countries. The author argues that the benefits of such regulations are not fully realised under non-cooperative policy settings, leading to a call for international cooperation in setting regulations. The research estimates the model and applies its gravity formulation to quantify the global welfare consequences of altering regulatory policies, the extent of the positive externalities across countries, the effects of cooperation, and the comparison with further tariff liberalisation. The analysis reveals that the entry of new high-quality firms, rather than changes in terms of trade, serves as the main quantitative driver of international spillovers.
