About the economy of the different parenting styles.
WU Lecture in Economics 2023 - Univ.Prof. Matthias Doepke, - 2023, Dec 20
This Event is organized by the Department of Economics
Helicopter parents in the USA, authoritarian parents in China and anti authoritarian education in Sweden – are the different parenting styles simply an expression of national cultural norms and traditions? Or rather are they economics incentives and constraints, paired with economically framework conditions, that form the parenting practices in different countries and that shape our imagination what is good parenthood? Will the growing inequality lead to “Parenting Gap” between wealthier and poorer families?
In this lecture Matthias Doepke presents a new approach to declare educations and parenthood from an economic perspective.

Can economic modeling save the economy?
WU Lecture in Economics 2022 - Francesco Zanetti - 2022, Dec 14
This Event is organized by the Department of Economics
The Ukraine war has led to global uncertainty, increased inflation, and reduced economic growth in Europe. How should macroeconomic policy react to such global shocks in the context of growing uncertainty?
What can we learn from macroeconomic models and empirical research? Can standard models deal with the situation and provide good policy advice? With academics and policymakers, we’ll be discussing how economics can help governments deal with macroeconomic shocks in times of high uncertainty.
Lecture:
Francesco Zanetti, Associate Professor in Economics, University of Oxford and David Richards Fellow of Wadham College
Moderated by:
Katrin Rabitsch, Associate Professor of Economics, WU Vienna University of Economics and Business

Gabriel Felbermayr - WU matters. WU talks. Geoökonomik und Nullsummenlogik

WU Lecture in Economics 2021 - Gabriel Felbermayr - 2021, Dec 15
So unterschiedlich wie die Länder selbst sind ihre politischen und ökonomischen Systeme. Auch lange nach Ende des kalten Krieges sind ihre Ziele und Instrumente noch immer enorm heterogen. Zudem erschwert die Nullsummenlogik, Lösungen für globale Herausforderungen wie den Klimawandel zu finden. Wir gehen der Frage nach, was diese geostrategischen Rivalitäten für die internationale Handelspolitik bedeuten. Welche Konsequenzen ergeben sich daraus für die WHO und die EU? Und welche Strategien gibt es, um unseren Wohlstand zu schützen?
Vortrag: Gabriel Felbermayr, Universitätsprofessor für Wirtschaftspolitik, WU; Direktor, Österreichisches Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung (WIFO)
Podium und Moderation:
Ingrid Kubin, Universitätsprofessorin für Internationale Wirtschaft, WU; Vizepräsidentin des Vorstands, Österreichisches Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung (WIFO)
