Description

Workshop Overview

This workshop aims to bring together cutting-edge results and new developments in Agent based models applied to political economy. With political economy we intend to embrace themes and domains at the heart of the Classics, including economic growth, business cycles, technical change, income distribution, functions and capacity of the State. In addition, we also welcome papers directly addressing the role and design of economic policies, including fiscal and monetary policies, innovation and industrial policies, trade and development policies, low-carbon transition policies, labour and welfare policies. The venue will be an occasion to exchange ideas, discuss open issues and challenges for future developments. The event welcomes contributions related to the following key topics:

  • Technological and structural change;
  • Labor market dynamics and employment policies;
  • Macroeconomic policies, business, and financial cycles;
  • Inequalities and climate change;
