Presentación
The Barcelona Institute of Economics (IEB) is pleased to announce its I Summer School on Fiscal Federalism. The objective of the Summer School is twofold. The first objective is to offer a one-week intensive training programme for PhD students on Fiscal Federalism. With this aim this year the Summer School will offer two 10-hour courses on the topics of ‘Tax Competition’ and on ‘Urban Public Finance’. The second objective is to provide young scholars with the opportunity to discuss their own ongoing research ideas with leading researchers in the field in a relaxed and open atmosphere. To accomplish this purpose, the students will have the opportunity to present their research work at sessions attended both by the invited lecturers and by IEB’s researcher.
