Reminder: Einladung zur Buchpräsentation "Hayek - A Life" am Montag, den 05.12.2022
by Renner, Hildegard 01 Dec '22

01 Dec '22

Liebe Kolleginnen, liebe Kollegen, das Department für Volkswirtschaft möchte Sie herzlich zur Präsentation des neu erschienen Buches „Hayek – A Life: 1899–1950“ von und mit Hansjoerg Klausinger persönlich einladen: Wann: 5. Dezember 2022 um 17.30 Uhr Wo: Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien, Gebäude LC, LC Clubraum Welthandelsplatz 1, 1020 Wien Titel: Hayek – A Life: 1899–1950 by Bruce Caldwell and Hansjoerg Klausinger Abstract: Friedrich A. Hayek gilt den einen als Vorkämpfer für eine freiheitliche Ordnung, den anderen als Apologet des Neoliberalismus und aller diesem zugeschriebener Übel – unbestritten ist seine Stellung als eine prägende Figur für das politische Denken des 20. Jahrhunderts. Der hier vorzustellende eben erschienene erste Teil einer Biographie versucht Hayeks Leben und Werk miteinander zu verknüpfen: die wegweisenden Beiträge, z.B. zur Wirtschaftsrechnungsdebatte, die Marginalisierung im England zwischen den Kriegen und der nur vorübergehende Erfolg der Road to Serfdom, und dies alles vor dem Hintergrund zunehmend zerrütteter privater Lebensumstände, die im Jahr 1950 in einem umfassenden Bruch und Neuanfang mündeten. Näheres zur Person Hansjoerg Klausinger finden Sie hier<https://www.wu.ac.at/en/economics/people/klausinger-h/> Näheres zum Buch finden sie auf der Seite unseres Buchhändlers Facultas: hier<https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/H/bo136253636.html> Wir freuen uns auf ihr zahlreiches Erscheinen zur Präsentation mit anschließender Diskussionsmöglichkeit und gemeinsamen Ausklang.

REMINDER - Call for Abstracts - Seventh ATHEA Conference “Looking beyond borders: Global Health Economics”
by Austrian Health Economics Association (ATHEA) 01 Dec '22

[cid:image001.png@01D8F8DB.CE59D670] Call for Abstracts Seventh ATHEA Conference for Health Economics “Looking beyond borders: Global Health Economics” Vienna, February 23rd and 24th 2023 In most European countries with their highly developed healthcare systems and ageing populations, communicable diseases were of little concern for public health, authorities and researchers compared to their non-communicable counterparts. This changed with the COVID-19 pandemic, which had an impact on societies and health systems world-wide and demonstrated most vividly that health systems do not exist independently of each other. As this year’s general conference theme, we therefore aim to have a look beyond the borders of Europe and see what health economics can contribute to these countries. In order to gain a better understanding of the field, we will organise a thematic stream and invite experts as keynote speakers: Janina Steinert is Professor of Global Health at the Technical University of Munich’s School of Governance and Research Associate at the University of Oxford Marc Suhrcke is Professor of Global Health Economics at the University of York and Senior Researcher at the Luxembourg Institute for Socio-Economic Research (tbc) As in previous years, submissions for presentation are welcome in all fields of health economics and health policy, including long-term care, and are not restricted to the conference topic. Deadline abstract submission (max. 500 words): December 20, 2022 to conference(a)athea.at<mailto:conference@athea.at> Notification abstract acceptance: January 20, 2023 Conference venue: Institute for Advanced Studies (IHS), Josefstädter Straße 39, 1080 Vienna, Austria Conference languages: English, German Conference fee on site: 95€ ___________________________________________ Austrian Health Economics Association (ATHEA) Josefstädter Straße 39 ● 1080 Wien web: www.athea.at<http://www.athea.at/> ● e-mail: athea(a)athea.at<mailto:athea@athea.at>

by Gnan, Ernest 01 Dec '22

01 Dec '22

Dear colleagues, please find attached a Call for Papers related to the use of surveys for monetary and economic policy<https://www.suerf.org/econsurveys>. SUERF-Banca d’Italia-ECB-EIB look very much forward to your submissions! Please forward to interested colleagues! Kind regards Ernest Gnan ________________________________________________ Prof Dr Ernest Gnan Secretary General, SUERF – The European Money and Finance Forum Honorary Economic Advisor to the OeNB Governor ernest.gnan(a)oenb.at<mailto:ernest.gnan@oenb.at> +43 664 4333384 • @dr_gnan<https://twitter.com/dr_gnan> • LinkedIn<https://www.linkedin.com/in/ernest-gnan-8a6957ab/> • www.suerf.org<http://www.suerf.org/> [cid:image002.png@01D9056E.D3FB3F20] Call for Papers www.suerf.org/econsurveys<http://www.suerf.org/econsurveys> We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the SUERF-Banca d’Italia-ECB-EIB Conference: The use of surveys for monetary and economic policy<https://www.suerf.org/econsurveys> Motivation Over the past years, surveys have gained importance to supplement information from “hard” economic data on various aspects of the economy, and to provide timely insights on the impact of sudden and unexpected events, such as the health and the energy crises. Available surveys cover a broad range of economic actors and sectors: households, firms, financial institutions, and economic and financial forecasters. Central banks, policy institutions and academia are using insights from such surveys increasingly to inform policy decisions. That said, existing surveys also have many limitations, and their interpretations are often subject to caveats; moreover, survey methods and research are currently developing very rapidly, given a changing economic environment, with new pressing policy and research questions emerging at a rapid pace. SUERF-Banca d’Italia-ECB-EIB Conference • 26-27 April 2023 in Rome, Italy The conference will be held in person at the Banca d’ Italia, in Rome, Italy, with the option to participate online, on April 26-27, 2023. The event is scheduled for 1 ½ days starting from 26 April afternoon. Confirmed speakers include a keynote lecture by Professor Stefanie Stantcheva (Harvard University) on the use of surveys for economic policy and a high-ranking policy panel discussing policy perspectives with senior representatives from key institutions. Research papers in the sessions will be commented by expert discussants followed by Q&A. A detailed program will be released once submissions from the call for papers have been evaluated and selected. ________________________________ Call for Papers This call for papers invites original research – theoretical or empirical, academic or policy-oriented – on “The use of surveys for monetary and economic policy”<https://www.suerf.org/econsurveys>. Submissions should preferably take the form of full draft papers written in English. Papers may relate to surveys among households, firms, financial institutions including banks, and other relevant parties, such as market analysists, forecasters etc. Papers may, inter alia, focus on the role of surveys on topics related to: - monetary and economic policy issues; firms’ investment decisions and financing constraints; - unique and unexpected events (e.g. COVID-19, the energy crisis); - inflation expectations and perceptions; household consumption and savings decisions; - the effectiveness of central bank communication; as well as methodological questions related to survey design, biases, etc. The deadline for paper submission is January 27, 2023. Completed papers in PDF format should be submitted through Conference Maker<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/editorialexpress.com/conference/SurveyPo…>. Papers will be selected by a Scientific Committee comprising experts from SUERF, the Banca d’Italia, the ECB and the EIB. Authors will be notified by end-February/early-March 2023. Authors of selected papers will be invited to present their work at the workshop and to publish a short policy-oriented version as a SUERF Policy Brief. Authors should preferably present their papers in person; in exceptional cases, online participation may be possible. Authors affiliated with central banks and other institutions are requested to cover their own travel costs. Authors from academic institutions are eligible for a reimbursement of their travel costs. Scientific committee: David Loschiavo and Concetta Rondinelli (Banca d’Italia, local organizers), Ernest Gnan (SUERF), Geoff Kenny and Dimitris Georgarakos (ECB), Matteo Gatti and Peter Harasztosi (EIB). Further information about the content and application can be found at: www.suerf.org/econsurveys<http://www.suerf.org/econsurveys> We would appreciate it if you could circulate this call for papers among your colleagues and other interested parties.

Dear colleagues, The next 'WU matters. WU talks.' event will be held on Wednesday, December 14, 2022, 6:00 pm This event is organized by the Department of Economics WU matters. WU talks - Macroeconomic Policy in Times of War Can economic modeling save the economy? The Ukraine war has led to global uncertainty, increased inflation, and reduced economic growth in Europe. How should macroeconomic policy react to such global shocks in the context of growing uncertainty? What can we learn from macroeconomic models and empirical research? Can standard models deal with the situation and provide good policy advice? With academics and policymakers, we'll be discussing how economics can help governments deal with macroeconomic shocks in times of high uncertainty.

WU Economics Research Seminar, 7.12.2022, 3.00 pm to 4.30 pm, Karin Mayr-Dorn (University of Linz)
by Oberhofer, Harald 01 Dec '22

01 Dec '22

Dear colleagues, The Department of Economics cordially invites you to the WU Economics Research Seminar on Wednesday, December 7th, with Karin Mayr-Dorn (University of Linz) on "Trade diversion and labor market adjustment: Vietnam and the U.S.-China trade war" Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of the U.S.-China trade war on trade diversion and the labor market in a third country, Vietnam. We exploit variation in Vietnamese exports to the U.S. across industries and districts based on the extent of the unexpected and exogenous U.S. tariff hikes on Chinese imports and provide evidence of an indirect effect on labor market outcomes in Vietnam. Vietnamese workers and districts that are more exposed to the trade war display higher employment, working hours, and wages as a result of the U.S.-China trade war. Our findings reveal that bilateral trade policy can have substantial offsetting effects on trade flows and labor markets in third countries. Date: Wednesday, December 7th Time: 3.00 to 4.30 pm (CET) Location: building TC, 4th floor, room TC.4.13 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

Dezember 2022, 15:30 Uhr Registration link: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_3CM9J2SPT0OFW7UjyEGCcQ This presentation is based on a paper co-authored with Pao-Li Chang and Shenxi Song. Abstract: Reciprocity is a key principle governing the negotiations under the GATT/WTO agreement, which calls for a balance of concessions among the WTO members. In recent years, however, various politicians across the world have voiced concerns about their country's excessive obligations under the WTO and a lack of reciprocation by their trading partners. Our objective in this paper is to evaluate the degree to which the pattern of applied tariffs across WTO members deviates from a balanced-concession condition. To this end, we employ a quantitative trade model and use alternative definitions of reciprocity to measure the concessions received and given by each country from 1995 to 2011. We find that over time, concessions have become more unbalanced mostly due to an increase in trade imbalances.

Abstract: Reciprocity is a key principle governing the negotiations under the GATT/WTO agreement, which calls for a balance of concessions among the WTO members. In recent years, however, various politicians across the world have voiced concerns about their country's excessive obligations under the WTO and a lack of reciprocation by their trading partners. Our objective in this paper is to evaluate the degree to which the pattern of applied tariffs across WTO members deviates from a balanced-concession condition. To this end, we employ a quantitative trade model and use alternative definitions of reciprocity to measure the concessions received and given by each country from 1995 to 2011. We find that over time, concessions have become more unbalanced mostly due to an increase in trade imbalances.
