📢 #29FMM Conference (23–25 Oct 2025, Berlin) We just released the program of this year's FMM conference "Gendering Macroeconomics". 💡Topics: Macroeconomic inequalities, gender gaps, labor markets & globalization... Do you want to listen to interesting research? Register here: tinyurl.com/y98k5fea

In diesem Feature www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de/griechenland... von Deutschlandfunk Kultur. Das Feuilleton im Radio wird die Entwicklung Griechenlands nach der Finanzkrise bis heute beleuchtet. Ich komme auch zu Wort. Hier nun etwas umfangreicher:

We have a new paper on the overstated effects of conventional monetary policy on output and prices. Results reported in the literature are plagued by p-hacking and publication bias, leading to inflated effect sizes of how interest rate hikes affect output and prices.

Very much looking forward to participating in this great workshop at the University of #Salerno and discuss advances in #macroeconometrics. sites.google.com/view/macrosa... @stefanobucchia.bsky.social the call for papers is open until August 20.

Submit to the Leibniz Open Science Day 2025 taking place on October 27 in Berlin, organized with @leventneyse.bsky.social @jrgptrs.bsky.social @dsiegfried1.bsky.social @macartan.bsky.social @wzb.bsky.social @rwi.bsky.social @diw.de @zbw-leibniz.bsky.social www.zbw.eu/de/ueber-uns... 1/2

Research by IMF economists shows that the rise and fall of inflation in advanced economies since 2020 has mostly been driven by supply shocks (energy, food, supply chains). Macroeconomic conditions "played a secondary role".

Astonishing: 3% of UK people take 30% of all flights According to a new report, these ultra-frequent-flyers, UFFs (>6 flights/yr) were responsible for 63% of new passenger traffic over the last 20 years. New infrastructure is largely fulfilling the carbon burning habits of this tiny minority

📢Deadline Approaching📅 Join discussions and present your work at the 29th FMM Conference "Gendering Macroeconomics" (23-25 Oct. 2025 Berlin). We look forward to receiving your abstract. Deadline for abstracts: June 14 www.imk-boeckler.de/de/aktuelle-... (1/3)

„Eine weitere Runde im Steuersenkungsspiel“: Freue mich riesig über mein aktuelles Interview zu den Entlastungsplänen der Regierung für Unternehmen mit Hannes Koch in der @taz.de! 👇 /1 @svrwirtschaft.bsky.social @unidue.bsky.social due.bsky.social @ifso.bsky.social sky.social taz.de/Oekonom-uebe...

Schön war's @inderwirtschaft.bsky.social in Chemnitz. Danke an Rudi und Felix für die spannende Diskussion! Wir haben u.a. darüber gesprochen, warum ungezielte Steuersenkungen für Unternehmen und gleichzeitige Verschärfungen beim Bürgergeld unsere Konjunktur wahrscheinlich nicht beleben werden.

Apropos Steuerpolitik. Wir freuen uns sehr, heute im #economics Forschungsseminar an der #TUChemnitz die wunderbare Julia Jirmann vom @steuergerecht.bsky.social begrüßen zu dürfen, mit ihrem Buch Blackbox Steuerpolitik. Alle Infos (+online-Zugang) hier: www.tu-chemnitz.de/wirtschaft/v...

I had the opportunity to present our work on growth effects of corporate taxes at an @oecd-ocde.bsky.social workshop in Paris. doi.org/10.1016/j.eu... Great discussions with country delegates afterwards. International coordination is our best hope for functional tax systems.

All those interested in #metaanalysis & #systematicreviews , please consider this CfP www.maer-net.org/2025-ottawa. The next MAERnet colloquium will be in Ottawa on October, 16-18, 2025​ (yes, picture shows a previous venue: Augsburg ;-)). Deadline for papers is June 1! Topics are interdisciplinary!

Journalists found that the Finnish finance ministry selectively cited @heimbergecon.bsky.social & my study on growth effects of corporate tax cuts to back their claim of a high self-financing effect of planned measure. Our main finding is inconsistent with this claim. doi.org/10.1016/j.eu...

Economist @sgechert.bsky.social brings much-needed sense to the current policy discussions in Finland regarding the Orpo government's decision to lower the corporate tax rate from 20% to 18%.

Hä?? Selbst wenn das Ziel #Wirtschaftswachstum wäre... dafür gibt es keine robusten empirischen Beleg! - z.B. @heimbergecon.bsky.social & @sgechert.bsky.social finden keine statistisch signifikante Gesamtwirkung von #Unternehmenssteuersenkungen auf Wirtschaftswachstum🤔

Here's an open letter to the American people, that I was proud to sign along with thousands of other members of the National Academy of Sciences #EconSky #AcademicSky marketdesigner.blogspot.com/2025/03/open...

Während Krisenzeiten sind Multiplikatoreffekte systematisch höher, deshalb sollte fiskalische Konsolidierung in einer Zeit der Erholung von einer wirtschaftlichen Krise passieren – und nicht währenddessen. Das zeigen @sgechert.bsky.social und Ansgar Rannenberg im #PaperDerWoche. 1/

Warum sind die Parteien, die Schuldenbremse so vehement verteidigen eigentlich immer diejenigen deren Wahlprogramme die höchsten Defizite bedeuten würden? Links 2021, rechts 2025.

Honored to give a talk about the macro effects of fiscal policy at this conference and looking forward to the event (+ my first time in Helsinki)
