Brexit: Rational Public Policy — You Must Be Joking
Government & Politics
JMCE NEXT–REL School of Diplomacy event with Professor Nicholas Barr (London School of Economics).
Join the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence on Next Generation EU–UK Relations for another event in its School of Diplomacy series: Brexit: Rational Public Policy — You Must Be Joking, with Professor Nicholas Barr.
The JMCE NEXT-REL School of Diplomacy is a series of lectures given by academics or external speakers to diplomats and practitioners on the future of the relations between the EU and the UK in the financial, legal and political sphere that seeks to engage students, academics, the EU institutions, government officials, and other stakeholders.
Nicholas Barr is Professor in Public Economics at the London School of Economics, the author of numerous articles, and author or editor of over twenty books, including The Economics of the Welfare State (6th edition, 2012), Pension Reform: A Short Guide (with Peter Diamond) (2010, also in Chinese and Spanish), and Financing Higher Education: Answers from the UK (with Iain Crawford), (2005). The heart of his work is an exploration of how market failures can both explain and justify the existence of welfare states. He is a member of the Editorial Board of the International Social Security Review and an Associate Editor of CESifo Economic Studies, the Australian Economic Review and the Journal of the Economics of Ageing.
The event will be held in Bush House North East Wing, Room BH (NE) 1.02. An informal reception with drinks will follow. We encourage all attendees to stay, enjoy a drink and network after the lecture.
