CIDE, headquartered in Mexico City and with another campus is Aguasca-lientes, is a center for research and higher education that specializes in social sciences. It forms part of a network of public research centers of the National Council of Science and Technology (CONACYT). During its four decades of existence it has consolidated as a centre for relevant theoretical and empirical debate concerning the national and international academic agenda, and has generated knowledge for public policy making.CIDE’s principal objective is to contribute to the country’s development by offering rigorous and relevant knowledge, as well as developing a new generation of leaders that are capable of performing in a creative and responsible manner, in an open and competitive world.

CIDE offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees in several areas of social sciences to students from Mexico and abroad. For more information about CIDE please visit http://cide.edu/en

The International Economic Association (IEA) is a world federation of economic associations from both developed and developing countries. Founded in 1950, this Non Governmental Organization aims to promote the advance of economic science and policy, especially on issues of global importance, through enhan-ced contact and understanding among economists from different parts of the world. Its mission is accomplished through the organization of scientific meetings, and publications. To this end, the IEA holds a triennial world congress, workshops and roundtables all around the globe, and supports the Research Institute for Development, Growth and Economics (RIDGE). All these activities bring together well reputed experts who examine pressing policies and analytic issues of global importance. The IEA has published the proceedings of these World Congresses and Roundtables in over one hundred and seventy five volumes. Many of these volumes have been highly influential. The leadership of the IEA has included a range of distinguished economists, including Joseph Stiglitz, Tony Atkinson, Kenneth Arrow, Amartya Sen, Jacques Drèze, Robert Solow and Janos Kornai. The current president is Tim Besley, Kaushik Basu is President-elect and Dani Rodrik Vice President. For more information visit: www.iea-world.org

WELCOME MESSAGE

Welcome to the 18 th Congress of the International Economic Association. The Congress is one of the largest gatherings of its kind and brings people from all over the world to discuss their research and policy issues of mutual concern and to address and debate the big economic and policy challenges of our time. We are looking forward to vibrant discussion and engagement with new ideas in the coming days.

The IEA relies on cooperation for its success and we would not be here in Mexico without the commitment of our host CIDE to whom we are extremely grateful. We are hugely appreciative of the tireless work of the programme committee. We are also extremely grateful to Andrea Cavallo, the Association Manager and Congress supremo who has played a pivotal role throughout. The program committee has helped in the selection of papers and organization of sessions along with a range of partner organizations – we are grateful to all of them.

The Congress would not have been possible without generous sponsorship. We would like to thank

TATA, AFD, Chair Energy and Prosperity, Google, IADB and the World Bank.

Following the global financial crisis, there was talk also of a crisis in the economics profession. But it is a case of plus ca change plus c’est la meme chose. The terms of debate is certainly changing with more attention paid to such things as sustainability, inequality and market imperfections. But what has not changed is the desire of large groups of economists to be working on the issues that matter and exciting new research, much of it showcased at this Congress, is emerging on these and other important topics. To the outside observer, it may seem that it is business as usual but the astute observer will see the visible signs of change in the way that economics is evolving. Areas like behavioural economics, political economy and the economics of culture continue to develop alongside more traditional fields of the discipline. What matters most is that research is focused on the most important issues and that economics is both relevant and rigorous in its approach.

The IEA values diversity both in terms of perspectives on economic problems and the representation of participants. Our aim is to represent the global economics profession in all of its dimensions. We continue to find new members keen to join in this global project and we are welcoming new members from Czech Economic Association, Slovak Economic Association, South Africa Economic Association, Asian Management Economics Commerce Association, Societat Catalana de Economia and Young African Economists Association to their first World Congress as members. But we do not take our loyal existing members for granted and we are grate-ful for their continuing support, recognizing that there is a role for a global federation of economics’ associations. We will continue to organize roundtables inthe period leading up to the next World Congress with the first one taking place less than one month after this Congress. The next World Congress is scheduled for 2020 when we look forward to welcoming you back when Dani Rodrik will be taking over as President.

Finally, we wish you an enjoyable and productive stay in Mexico!

SAFETY FIRST

· Santa Fe is the newest and fastest growing district of Mexico City. You will be in a nice modern business neighborhood, but be aware of the hazards of a huge city.

· Walking alone in the streets during the late hours of night is not recommended.

· Avoid wearing expensive jewelry and watches.

· You can hire taxis from the hotels for getting around in the city. They are relatively expensive but safe. A cheaper alternative is UBER (no cash payment) which works extremely well in Mexico City. Any restaurant can arrange for taxis to the hotels. Make sure that you do not �ag down cabs in the street as they are not safe.

· Make sure that you always have on you the address and telephone phone number of your hotel.

· Answer telephone calls only from people you know. In very rare occasions you may receive telephone calls in your hotel room from unknown persons. Do not continue the conversation even if it may seem serious and urgent, Simply hung up.
