Presentation

Members of the Development, Institutions, Cities and Regions group use theoretical and empirical methods to conduct research in applied microeconomics. The main topics under investigation cover:

- the design and evaluation of public policies in the areas of labor, tax, innovation, housing or health;
- the determinants and consequences of urbanization and the spatial organization of economic activities;
- the determinants and consequences of violence and democratic forces.

Empirical works analyze survey, administrative, historical or geolocalized data using applied econometric or machine learning methods. Case studies cover both developing and developed countries. Theoretical works develop network formation models, urban economic models or optimal taxation models.
