1. PRESENTATION This report offers an overview of the research activities that have taken place at the IAE (Institute for Economic Analysis) during the years 2016, 2017 and 2018. As a research institute of the CSIC (Higher Council for Scientific Research) the mission of the IAE is to produce policy-relevant research in economics of the highest academic standard and also to train young researchers. We produce theoretical and empirical papers that cover a variety of fields, including labor economics, immigration and development, industrial organization, political economics, macroeconomics and growth, microeconomics, game theory and experimental economics. Recent rankings recognize the IAE as a leading European institution for research in Economics. The numerous studies undertaken by the IAE's researchers produce a steady output of top publications in international scientific journals. We have a post-doctoral program with a long tradition. It is a privileged launching pad for brilliant careers in economics research. The IAE is a founding partner of the Barcelona Graduate School of Economics, an academic institution that promotes excellence in research and offers world-class graduate programs. The Barcelona GSE is considered a top institution in Economics in Spain and has been granted the Severo Ochoa Excellence award since 2011. The IAE co-organizes with the Department of Economics and Economic History of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona different seminar series and collaborates with their International Doctoral Program in Economic Analysis (IDEA) teaching and supervising doctoral students. Our agenda of research activities includes specialized conferences and workshops, regular invited seminars, and dissemination talks.
