Colloque « Histoire économique et politique économique »
Les 14 et 15 décembre 2015 aura lieu à la Banque de France une conférence sur les liens entre histoire économique et politique économique. Les travaux présentés montreront l’importance des séries longues pour l’aide à la décision. Ils illustreront la qualité des modèles historiques pour penser les problèmes économiques contemporains liés notamment à la stimulation de l’innovation, à l’impact de la réglementation financière sur les marchés financiers, à la politique monétaire dans un monde de dette publique élevée et à la politique de stabilité financière.
La conférence est organisée par la Banque de France, Sciences Po et les universités d’Oxford, d’Humboldt à Berlin, de Carlos III Madrid, l’Université Libre et Bruxelles, le Graduate Institute de Genève et la London School of Economics en tant qu’institutions d’enseignement supérieur membres du réseau européen Macrohist.
