161 Towards a New European Growth Model: Exploring the Alternatives

Thursday, July 9, 2015: 11:00 AM-12:45 PM
H101 (28 rue des Saints-Pères)
In the wake of the recession triggered by the 2008 financial crisis and the subsequent Eurozone crisis, ways back to sustained economic growth and full employment are hard to find.  It is easy to say what is not working as a growth strategy than to find one that is. The purpose of this panel will be to explore go beyond the negative: exploring credible ways forward for public policy-makers committed to substantial improvements in growth rates, employment levels and living standard. Each paper will be designed to move beyond simply a critique of old models towards a specification of new ones that are sensitive to both general structural issues and particular national characteristics and circumstances. The papers will focus in particular on growth models for the UK, France and the United States.
