Learning outcomes
The course covers the main contemporary issues in public finance and public economics. It is aimed at allowing students to read and understand the theoretical and empirical literature (both academic and policy-oriented) as well as to implement their own research. Reference is also made to main institutional aspects at the national and, where relevant, international level. Students will develop a sound knowledge of concepts and phenomena related to public finance and public intervention in the economy with special reference to: social security, taxation and investment/financial decisions; taxation and labor supply; public debt; market regulation; market auctions. Students will be able to assess critically the economic and social implications of the main public intervention schemes. Students will be also introduced to the use of scientific software to simulate the impact of public policies on individual behavior.
Program
Main Subjects
- Taxation: impact on investment decisions and labor supply; choice of the tax base.
- Social security: impact on investment decisions and labor supply; pension reforms in an ageing society.
- Public debt: macroeconomic effects, sustainability.
- Imperfect Competition, Market Regulation and Regulatory Reforms; Auctions and Procurement.
During the course, it will be shown how to simulate economic models in order to assess quantitatively the impact of public policies.
Textbooks and references
For each topic students will refer to a selected bibliography which will be given at the beginning of the course.
Lecture notes, scientific papers and some chapters of the textbooks listed below will be the main references.
Selected teaching material will be made available on the e-learning web page.

The exam is written. This exam will test for: (a) the understanding of the theoretical tools (concepts and formal models) presented in the course, (b) knowledge of the relevant quantitative evidence (c) ability to use theoretical tools and quantitative evidence to critically discuss the impact of government intervention.
Accordingly, during the exam, candidates are expected to solve problems and\or write short essays on specific topics.

Internships
The curriculum of the three-year degree courses (CdL) and master's degree courses (CdLM) in the economics area includes an internship as a compulsory training activity. Indeed, the internship is considered an appropriate tool for acquiring professional skills and abilities and for facilitating the choice of a future professional outlet that aligns with one's expectations, aptitudes, and aspirations. The student can acquire further competencies and interpersonal skills through practical experience in a work environment.

Methods of teaching delivery
All lectures as well as all the exams are held in person. In particular, we highlight the importance of taking part in classroom activities in order to benefit from interaction with colleagues and instructors and participating in project works, presentations and group works that could be organized by the different courses.
Furthermore, as a further service to students, the lessons will be video-recorded and made available on the relevant e-learning platform of the courses unless otherwise communicated by the individual lecturers who will also define the methods and times for activating this service. However, it is underlined that the recordings do not represent a substitute for the lectures and activities carried out in the classroom.
