The goal of the current project is to examine whether and how atypical schedules of work have short-term and long-term effects on cognitive functioning and whether they moderate cognitive trajectories associated with aging, in the direction of an accelerated cognitive aging in people with atypical w

This research will analyse the expertise mechanism in one of the most important economic sectors - the building industry - during the early modern times. How were the technical, regulatory and controlling language used by the experts to coerce society? How did the technical competence of experts bec

Our central hypothesis is that perceived (in)justice at work will indirectly affect subsequent MSDs via its

Since the uprising and the war that followed, the knowledge produced on Syria came mostly from experts and journalists than from the academic field. If social scientists keep on publishing despite the impossibility to go to Syria, they are often prompted to provide studies framed for international o

The PROFAM collaborative research project analyzes the transformations of the care work for elderly losing their autonomy, in a context of demographic ageing, but also a context of restricting the budgets allocated to social policies.

The project seeks to establish a theoretical model for the co-construction of the health insurance market by different stakeholders (the European Union, the French State, insurance firms, trade unions and employers’ associations, and businesses). The notion of commodification is used as a conceptual

TKC project aims to improve our understanding of the way in which highly skilled migrants activate their social networks and leverage their role as international gatekeepers, and to what extent they contribute to solve cross-border information and agency problems.

Evaluating the effect of public policies, often called «treatment effects«, is a major goal in micro-econometrics. However, it is difficult to achieve because of endogeneity: beneficiaries of a public policy such as subsidized jobs often differ from non-beneficiaries. Thus, a comparison of these two

During the last two decades, increased opportunities for patent monetization have resulted in the rise of institutions facilitating the sale of patents (Hagiu and Yoffie, 2013). New intermediaries, such as patent aggregators and, more generally, non-practicing entities (NPEs) have become quite infl

The project has two axes. Axis 1: obsolete information. Why do job seekers prefer recent listings, and why do advertisers frequently renew their listings? A plausible explanation for these two phenomena lies in the existence of outdated information on matching markets. There is little doubt about t

Technologically-driven innovation in finance (FinTech) is poised to streamline trading, reduce costs, and disrupt the existing financial architecture.

It focuses on the relationship between the funding policy of firms (both financials and non-financials) and the real economy. While funding of banks

The project aims at gathering economists and physicists in order to better understand how innovation emerges and spread from the initial scientific discoveries into groundbreaking technologies, and how government policy may support specifically such research and development investments. The burgeoni

The modern media industry is in a state of crisis. Digitalization has changed the nature of competition in media markets and the range of products provided. There is growing concern about news quality and the effectiveness of the media as a check on power. Furthermore, the number of journalists is c

The labor market deregulation and the growing professional mobility make visibility and renown necessary to reach some occupational status. Reputation becomes a key principle of hierarchical organization. Events represent gathering places for professionals, notably when those ones are independent or

The global economy is subject to large and sudden changes in regimes, as evidenced by the severe crashes in the financial system during the last two decades, including the global financial crisis of 2008. A distinctive feature of the last crashes it that these are episodes during which previously un

The purpose of this research project is to understand how the policy innovation process is initiated in situations of major uncertainty and confusion. To this end, this research will focus on an empirical analysis of how the Ministry of Economics and Finance and more broadly, all the actors involved
