Two panel debates on Transition challenges in going grey, green and digital (with Angela Koeppl, Margit Schratzenstaller and Jens Suedekum) and United in diversity? Convergence patterns in Europe reconsidered (with Roberta Capello and Robert Stehrer) will follow. Dani Rodrik will deliver the Distinguished ECFIN Lecture on Globalisation in the “new normal”.
