Presentation

This year’s workshop will focus on challenges to the welfare state and their potential solutions. We invite submissions of theoretical and empirical papers on the evaluation of policies that affect the public sector either on the revenue or on the expenditure side. In particular, the workshop will focus around topics related to behavioural responses to taxation, mobility, the design of tax enforcement, tax harmonization, and social expenditure policies such as pensions, unemployment, and health, among others.
