[International_seminars] Reminder: International Seminar - European Centre (3 Sept): Social inequalities in health in Europe: patterns, explanations and implications
by Ricardo Rodrigues 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Dear Sir / Madame, We would like to invite you to our upcoming events in the International Seminar series of the European Centre for Social Welfare Policy and Research: On Tuesday 03.09.2019, 12:30 - 14:00 Prof Tim Huijts (Maastricht University) Title: Social inequalities in health in Europe: patterns, explanations and implications Although social inequalities in health exist in all societies worldwide, the degree of these inequalities varies spatially, and notable differences exist across countries. This implies that social inequalities in health are not inevitable, and that there is potential to considerably reduce health inequalities. Moreover, these differences are often contrary to expectations: for example, the Scandinavian welfare states do not always have the smallest health inequalities. In this seminar, Prof Tim Huijts will present data on patterns of social inequality in health in Europe, drawing for example on a recent European Social Survey module on social determinants of health and on findings from the NORFACE-funded HiNews project. Additionally, he will review research that has tested why social inequalities in health vary cross-nationally, using recent examples from his own work. He will also discuss what these findings imply for social policy and public health policy in European countries. Finally, he will cover some remaining gaps in this line of research that will need to be addressed to take research and policy on health inequalities in Europe further. He will use the link between insecurity and health as an example to illustrate these gaps. You can find more about the event here: https://www.euro.centre.org/events/detail/3502 Registration for the event is mandatory and free of charge, at: https://www.euro.centre.org/events/register/3502 Location for the event: Seminar Room at the European Centre for Social Welfare Policy and Research, Berggasse 17, 1090 Vienna Please feel free to disseminate this information in your professional network. Thank you very much in advance.

Einladung | VOSTA Freitagsseminar | John Chamberlin

[https://files.oenb-events.com/108-0e78372812a2cce476ee302347ae2f66.jpg] EINLADUNG ________________________________ Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, wir laden Sie herzlich zum VOSTA Freitagsseminar mit Herrn John Chamberlin, Observatory Group, mit dem Titel "Artificial Intelligence, Financial Markets and the Economic Singularity" ein. Termin: Freitag, 06. September 2019 um 11.00 Uhr Ort: Oesterreichische Nationalbank Veranstaltungssaal, Erdgeschoss Otto-Wagner-Platz 3 1090 Wien Abstract: Quantitative and passive investment strategies have steadily displaced discretionary (i.e., human) strategies over the past few decades, with no end in sight for this trend. Artificial intelligence is starting to be used in investing. This trend is not limited to the financial sector, but is rather a reflection of what’s happening in all sectors of economic activity. My contention is that as the economy consumes exponentially more computation, and the price of computational power deflates exponentially, that there is an underlying deflationary pulse across the global economy that is holding inflation and interest rates down. All the major central banks are struggling to understand this phenomenon and to hit their inflation targets, which is giving rise to new economic theories and a rejection of ones that have been assumed to be axiomatic. I discuss some of these new theories and some that are being discarded, and what this will mean for future macro-economic policy making. Finally, I argue that the impact of automation and AI, and the subsequent low inflation low interest rates environment, is already having vast macro-economic and societal consequences, as labor markets and traditional businesses struggle to adapt to rapid automation. I use specific examples of how this phenomenon is playing out in the US, how it was partially responsible for the elections results of 2016, and how it’s shaping the 2020 election platforms. Um Ihre verlässliche An- bzw. Abmeldung ersuchen wir bis Dienstag, 03. September 2019, unter event-management(a)oenb.at<mailto:event-management@oenb.at>.

September 2019, 13:30 Uhr (Achtung geänderte Beginnzeit) WIFO, Kleiner Sitzungssaal Martin Rode (Universidad de Navarra, Pamplona) "The price of populism: Financial market outcomes of populist electoral success" Kommentar: tba Abstract: Research on financial markets is only beginning to uncover the importance of public policy for risk assessment and asset prices. Given its rejection of institutionalized democratic limits and external constraints, we hypothesize that the electoral success of populist political movements should impact the risk assessment of financial markets. Still, it is a priori unclear whether there are observable differences based on ideological orientation. Employing data from a variety of sources, we show for a sample of Western democracies that the electoral success of more populist parties has a direct impact for price volatility in major domestic market indices spanning national election dates. Particularly the political insecurity generated by populist movements on the left seems to directly translate into financial insecurity, while the effect of right-wing populism is more ambiguous.
