This week’s lecture was on “labor market policy” vs. “economic policy” and how to handle “employment politic”. It’s been about Keynes and his economic ideas as well as neoclassical economics. He’s been talking about supply and demand as drivers or basis for thinking on how to influence the market. He’s been talking about the definitions of unemployment rates, and the different types of unemployment and social security systems, and the effect of employment protection legislation on the “unemployment rate.

As usual: great to start the week with his lecture!
