SUMMARY:Conference on Decision-Making Under Uncertainty in Climate and Macroeconomics
DESCRIPTION:The “Conference on Decision-Making Under Uncertainty in Climate and Macroeconomics” is a small and colloquial two-day workshop to discuss the latest advancements in theory and applications of decision-making under uncertainty with the goal of advancing policy solutions for the climate and the economy. We envision four sessions each with plenary speakers along with more focused perspectives and research contributions from additional scholars. The talks will provide an inroad for participants interested in the climate sciences\, economic implications\, and uncertainty from a variety of different vantage points. We aim for this event to nurture cross-disciplinary communication on important challenges related to climate change. This conference is organized by the Macro Finance Research Program (MFR) at the University of Chicago\, Bocconi University\, and the RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment.  \nObjectives: A small and colloquial two-day workshop to discuss the latest advancements in theory and applications of decision-making under uncertainty with the goal of fostering a dialogue between climate and economic sciences and advancing climate policy solutions. \nFormat: The conference will be two days long\, with one day centered on climate and the second day focused on macro-economics. On each day\, there will be two sessions of roughly 3 hours each. One hour of introduction by two speakers describing the problem and the current knowledge. One hour of responses by discussants. One hour of brainstorming between experts from different disciplines. \nOrganized by MFR-Chicago\, Bocconi\, and the RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment. \nCo-funded by the European Union (ERC\, EUNICE\, project number: 101044703). Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Research Council. Neither the European Union nor the granting authority can be held responsible for them. \nAttendance for this event is by invitation only.

SUMMARY:Undergraduate Spring Panel - The US Labor Market: Turbulence and Structural Changes
DESCRIPTION:Over the last several decades\, economists have documented significant structural changes to the labor market in the United States. Among them are a declining labor share of income\, the expansion of automation\, increased competition across borders from globalization\, and decreased competition at home with high levels of consolidation and concentration in many markets. The COVID-19 pandemic has also introduced turbulence to the labor market\, which\, apart from generating employment fluctuations\, exacerbated inequality and precipitated drastic changes in where and how work is done in the U.S. \nThe 2023 Undergraduate Panel featured a discussion on these topics. Economists engaging in cutting-edge research parsed the wisdom to untangle difficult questions posed by short-term and long-term changes in labor markets.
