The 2022 Paris Symposium took place at Sciences Po, Paris on 1-3 June and brought together leading voices in European and global economics from across our network. Over 100 speakers were heard across some 78 sessions. While the Symposium itself was invitation only, we are making key moments available in the form of live recordings from all the major panels as well as podcasts recorded at the venue and shorter video interviews, all of which will be added to this page as they are published.
What does history teach us about the economic impact of populism – and is our taste for populists a bug or a feature of democracy? Tim Phillips talks to Moritz Schularick and Massimo Morelli.
Recorded live at CEPR Paris Symposium 2022: Inequality isn’t just between individuals, but between regions too. Henry Overman explains to Tim Phillips why these disparities exist, why they are so persistent, and whether regional policies to “level up” left-behind places will succeed.
What is the source of a financial crisis? Why are financial systems fragile and why do they occasionally collapse? Stephen Cecchetti talks about his study on this topic. What he calls the anatomy of a financial crisis, can unfold in five steps in which people’s willingness to take on risks and their trust in financial institutions play a key role.
Patrick Bolton finds investors in all sectors are already integrating risks associated with the carbon transition into their investments.
