In the Wirtschaftspodcast ECONtribute addresses political challenges of the following years and discusses them scientifically every two weeks until the election on September 26. Tackling climate change, getting the economy up and running again after the pandemic, and enabling affordable housing for all: Researchers from the Cluster of Excellence provide scientific evidence on major election challenges.

Kicking off the season, Prof. Dr. Felix Bierbrauer, professor at ECONtribute at the University of Cologne, analyzes possible reforms of the German tax system. Is our tax system efficient? Should high-income earners pay higher taxes? And how realistic are tax cuts after the pandemic?

Listen to the first episode.

In the second episode, Prof. Dr. Moritz Schularick, professor at ECONtribute at the University of Bonn, analyses the real estate market in Germany over the past decade. His outlook: housing will still be in short supply in 2030. The episode deals with the real estate boom, gentrification and (un)affordable rents.

Listen to the second episode.

In monthly episodes of about 30 minutes, Carolin Jackermeier, PR Manager at ECONtribute, discusses the most exciting topics of ECONtribute research and provides insight into the work of the Cluster of Excellence. Following the elections, the current season #Education will continue.
