Dear colleagues, We hereby invite you to join our next Economics of Inequality Research Seminar<https://www.wu.ac.at/en/ineq/outreach/ineq-research-seminar> at WU Vienna. Aline Bütikofer<https://sites.google.com/site/alinebuetikofer/home> (NHH) will present the paper Moving to Cleaner Skyes - At What Age Does Childhood Exposure to Pollution Matter for Health And Human Capital? Date and Time: Monday, May 19; 3.00 p.m. Location: WU Vienna, D3 - D3.0.222<https://campus.wu.ac.at/?q=D3.0.222>. Abstract This paper examines the long-term impacts of early childhood pollution exposure by exploiting the sharp decrease in acid rain in Norway after the enactment of the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution. We combine a difference-in-differences and a movers' design to analyze the outcomes between cohorts born in municipalities before and after a significant decrease in pollution exposure relative to those same cohorts born in municipalities with little initial exposure. Our findings indicate that higher pollution levels are linked to lower academic performance, with children being most vulnerable to pollution exposure during early childhood.

(Vorsitzender) Zum Thema: Das Auftreten des COVID 19 Virus war in mancher Hinsicht ungewöhnlich und in seiner Form unerwartet. Der Umgang der politischen Entscheidungsträger mit dem Problem musste sich Etikettierungen von Hilflosigkeit bis Verantwortungslosigkeit gefallen lassen Aber die politischen und administrativen Institutionen sind im Prinzip mit institutionalisierten Vorgehensweisen bei neuartigen und überraschenden Problemlagen ausgestattet, wie dem Precautionary Principle, oder Vorsichtsmotiv [zuletzt vom 2.2.2000 COM 2000 1 final, Brüssel].

REMINDER - [INEQ Research Seminar] Federica Braccioli, May 12 -- Education Expansion, College Choice and Labour Market Success
by Disslbacher, Franziska 07 May '25

07 May '25

Dear colleagues, We hereby invite you to join our next Economics of Inequality Research Seminar<https://www.wu.ac.at/en/ineq/outreach/ineq-research-seminar> at WU Vienna. Federica Braccioli<https://federicabraccioli.github.io/> (WU) will present the paper Education Expansion, College Choice and Labour Market Success Co-Authors: Paolo Ghinetti, Simone Moriconi, Costanza Naguib, Michele Pellizzar. Date and Time: Monday, May 12; 3.00 p.m. Location: WU Vienna, D3 - D3.0.222<https://campus.wu.ac.at/?q=D3.0.222>. Abstract We study the choice of acquiring STEM and non-STEM college education using variation induced by the proximity to universities offering different types of programs. We adopt a novel methodology allowing the identification of the distribution of response types and treatment effects in a multiple unordered discrete choice setting (Heckman and Pinto, 2018). The empirical analysis is based on confidential survey data for Italy, combined with administrative information about the founding dates of all Italian universities and faculties. We find that most compliers are women at the margin of choosing STEM education versus not going to college. We simulate the effects of expanding the supply of STEM education and discover that, in addition to substantial effects on employment, the gender disparity in STEM education could potentially decrease by up to 20%.

FW: Economic Theory & Policy Seminar / E. Adamopoulou (ZEW)/ The Long-term Earnings' Effects of a Credit Market Disruption
by Hutter, Julia 05 May '25

05 May '25

Dear all, we kindly invite you to our next Economic Theory & Policy talk on Mon, May 12, 2025, 4:00 PM - TU Wien, Seminarroom: DA green 04 (Freihaus Building, 4th floor, green area) Effronsyni (Efi) Adamopoulou (ZEW) https://sites.google.com/site/efiadamopoulou/home “The Long-term Earnings' Effects of a Credit Market Disruption” This paper studies the long-term consequences on firms and workers of the credit crunch triggered by the 2007-2008 global financial crisis. Relying on a unique matched bank-employer-employee administrative dataset, we construct a firm-specific credit supply shock and examine firms' and workers' outcomes for 11 years after the crisis. We find that highly-exposed firms shrink permanently and invest less; these effects are larger for high capital-intensive firms and their workers. Displaced workers reallocate mostly to low capital-intensive firms, experiencing persistent earnings losses.
