Profitons-en pour rendre hommage au sociologue Roger Establet récemment disparu, auteur en 1989 de ce livre un peu provocateur, qui n'avait à l'époque plu ni à la vieille gauche ni à la droite plus ou moins nouvelle. Ça arrange beaucoup de monde de dire que le niveau s'effondre!

I have embarked, with Beatrice Weder di Mauro, Pascal Lamy, and Enrico Letta on a major project, called Europe 2050. The idea is to think about what we want Europe to be in 2050, look at where it is today, and how we can go from here to there. (Thanks to Mr Putin and Trump for forcing us to think about the role of Europe, and hopefully, for Europe to do what needs to be done).

To achieve this, we have invited a number of experts, be it on trade, on defense, on regulation, on European institutions, on populism, etc, to write short notes, which we shall put on the web as they come during the spring and the summer. Some contributions are likely to be more vision-like, others to be more narrowly focused and technical. (We shall write a stock taking paper at the end). I do not expect the project to come out with a generally agreed plan, but more to serve as a toolbox for what needs to be done. https://t.co/ED8mpelDf5

I intend to tweet about each contribution, starting with the first two. Comments welcome.

New QJE paper on France’s mandated profit-sharing: distributing excess profits to workers raises the labor share and reduces the profit share, with little effect on investment or productivity. Gains mainly go to lower-skilled workers; high-skilled pay unaffected.
