Recovery with a Human Face

A discussion on alternatives for a socially-responsive crisis recovery
 

August 02nd, 2014

Dear Isabel 

I would like to submit to your excellent network the following article I wrote with Giovanni Cozzi, published in the Financial Times The article proposes policy measures, such as  increasing further the capital of the European Investment Bank (the public development bank of the EU),  and  using the EU budget to encourage private investment; this could be accompanied by avoiding  any  further decline of public investment in member countries, especially in the European periphery. We present results of our simulations using the Cambridge Alphametrics model that show that such measures could increase employment  by up to 5 MILLION JOBS in the EU, as well as lowering public debt to GDP ratios , for example in the European periphery

Warmest Stephany

    “We, the Peoples” are the first words of the UN Charter. The UN was founded in 1945 and

    persons, not simply the recovery of a few economic indicators and
    companies.
