Program > Invited SessionsInvited Sessions Program Monday, June 19 2:00 – 3:30pm Invited Session : Complex systems and economics - Amphi 2 Complex system approaches aim to better understand various socio-economic consequences of interactions among heterogeneous actors. Recently, researchers in this field are increasing incorporating laboratory experiments in their analyses. This session gathers three presentations that demonstrate such recent developments. Complex Adaptive Economic Systems in the Laboratory Financial Contagion in Networks: A Market Experiment Trading in decentralized markets: experimental and computational results Monday, June 19 2:00 – 3:30pm Invited Session : Cross-fertilization of macro-economic approaches? - Amphi 3 Since the last economic crisis, Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium (DSGE) models are facing more and more criticisms. The recent developments of Macro-Agents based models (MABM) seems to seriously challenge those models. This session proposes to discuss the nature of their contribution to macroeconomics discussing their methodology, their empirical validity and finally the interest of conceiving hybrid models. Agent-Based Modeling’s Open Form Methodology: Simulation, Abduction, and Reflexivity An alternative framework for macroeconomic stabilization policy The Financial Transmission of Shocks in a Simple Hybrid Macroeconomic Agent Based Model Tuesday, June 20 2:15 – 3:45pm Invited Session : "Gains from Trade revisited" - Amphi 6 Gains from trade is now the subject of intense and renewed debate. Researchers in the field of international trade try to develop altogether new tools in order to better quantify the complex impacts of globalization on a country welfare. This session gathers three presentations that contributes to this new quantification effort. "Taks, Trade, and wage inequality" "The international elasticity puzzle is worse than you think" "The Gains from Input Trade in Firm-Based Models of Importing" Wednesday, June 21 1:30 – 3:00pm Invited session : "Productivity dynamics" - Amphi 2 Recent productivity trends, documented both at the macro and micro levels, are questioning our ability to estimating accurately technological progress and/or efficiency gains through our commonly accepted concept of total factor productivity (TFP). They also rise important issues as regard the dynamics of income inequalities across and within countries. "The Mystery of TFP" The Great Divergences: The growing dispersion of wages and productivity in OECD countries Trend breaks in French productivity : which impact of the crisis? |
