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. Date: Wednesday, December 14, 2022 Time: 6:00pm Location: Ceremonial Hall 1, LC building and YouTube livestream livestream link: wu.at/matters-macroeconomic-policy Lecture: Francesco Zanetti, Associate Professor in Economics, University of Oxford and David Richards Fellow of Wadham College Moderated by: Katrin Rabitsch, Associate Professor of Economics, WU Vienna University of Economics and Business Further information and sign-up page<wu.at/matters-macroeconomic-policy> We are looking forward to your participation.
