The past ten years has seen an explosion of interest in large and heterogeneous datasets and the statistical and computational techniques needed to handle them. Most of the innovation in this area has come in statistics and computer science departments, but recently economists have also begun to...

In recent years an exciting economic literature has emerged that seeks to understand disparities in economic development across countries by going far back in history. Distant historical events can often be linked to long-lasting effects on institutions, culture, human capital and technology; in...

We aim at creating a forum of junior and senior experts to discuss cutting-edge research in the fields of economic growth and fluctuations (EGF). We do not want to limit the range of topics, but rather be broad and open to the best type of research conducted in the EGF field.

The purpose of the workshop is to discuss a selected number of research papers focusing on the study of monetary policy and other central bank policies. Suitable topics include (but are not restricted to): - The role played by agents’ heterogeneity and financial frictions - The challenges...

In this two days’ workshop we want to bring together researchers working in two quite separate fields, computational economics and experimental economics, which yet have seen a steady increase of fruitful interaction in the recent years. Topics include the understanding of the emergent dynamic...
