SUMMARY:3rd Reading Reading Experimental and Behavioural Workshop (REBEW)
DESCRIPTION:The department of Economics at the University of Reading held the 3rd Reading Experimental and Behavioural Economics workshop online on 22-23 June. \nOver the last two years\, we have welcomed researchers from the UK as well as Australia\, France\, Spain\, Germany and Luxemburg to discuss research around specific themes. Previous keynote speakers have been Phil Grossman\, Sarah Smith\, Jordi Brandts\, and Marie Claire Villeval. Please find the previous programmes here: 2018 programme and 2019 programme. \nThis year Due to the Covid-19 pandemic\, we ran a two half-day workshop with the two themes of ‘Behavioural games’ (22 June) and ‘Gender’ (23 June). The keynote speakers were Sander Onderstal (University of Amsterdam) and Friederike Mengel (University of Essex)\, respectively. \nPlease find the programme for the details. 2020 programme \n

SUMMARY:Abdulaleem Isiaka (Virtual Seminar)
DESCRIPTION:Title: What is the redistributive impact of reallocating government spending? Evidence from a sample of middle-income countries \nAbstract: This paper employs the fixed effects estimator in examining the redistributive impact of financing welfare programmes through cuts in other government spending components within a panel of 51 middle income countries over the period 2005–2015. Additionally\, this study investigates how the percentile income shares of different income groups within the sample are affected by the spending reallocations towards welfare programmes. This study finds that the twin objective of reducing inequality and benefiting all income groups can be achieved if the right social welfare programme is financed by cuts in expenditure on infrastructure\, agriculture and other sectors of the economy. However\, no evidence is found to confirm that inequality reduces with reallocations from defence spending towards social welfare programmes. Upon splitting the sample by income levels\, this paper finds that reallocations towards education spending are more crucial in upper middle income countries while spending reallocations towards social protection and health spending have greater relevance in lower middle income countries. Based on its findings\, this paper recommends that policy makers in middle income countries give greater consideration to the redistributive prospects of spending reallocations towards social welfare programmes. \nDownload the paper \nWatch the video
