Description: The Institute for Empirical Research in Economics is part of the Faculty of Economics at the University of Zürich. The Institute is endowed with six chairs (Microeconomics and Experimental Economics, Economic Policy and Non-Market Economics, Econometrics and Applied Statistics, Financial Economics and Monetary Macroeconomics, Economic History, Macroeconomics,) and has a strong commitment to top research in theoretical and empirical economics. As a part of this commitment the Institute recently started a new working paper series. The first 20 working papers cover already a wide range of topics and some of them deal with long-standing and still unresolved questions in economics. Topics comprise empirical labor economics, empirical and theoretical macroeconomics, economic history and questions at the intersection of economics and psychology. Since we just filled our vacant chair in Financial Economics, there will also be a flow of contributions in this field in the future. Methodologically, the authors apply methods developed by behavioral and experimental economists as well as the standard methods of econometrics, optimization theory and game theory. We hope that the plurality of methods and approaches provides a mix of exciting and important research results that will be appreciated by the scientific community and the larger public.
