The document discusses the Lisbon Treaty, which amended previous EU treaties to streamline the bureaucracy, introduce qualified majority voting, and expand and enhance common EU policies and values. It failed initially when it was rejected in Ireland due to a vote against by O'Rourke. The main message is that history affects current spending priorities and the path of economic integration in the EU.

An 8.0 magnitude earthquake struck Sichuan province in China in May 2008, causing massive devastation. Over 32,000 people were confirmed dead and millions of homes were destroyed. However, heroic rescue efforts were undertaken in the aftermath. Soldiers, volunteers, and medical workers rushed to the quake zone to rescue survivors trapped under rubble despite facing dangerous conditions. Ordinary citizens also donated money, supplies, and time in a massive relief effort that highlighted the human spirit during a tragic disaster.

La Unión Europea ha acordado un embargo petrolero contra Rusia en respuesta a su invasión de Ucrania. El embargo forma parte de un sexto paquete de sanciones y prohibirá la mayoría de las importaciones de petróleo ruso en la UE a finales de este año. Algunos estados miembros aún dependen en gran medida del petróleo ruso y se les ha concedido una exención, pero se espera que el embargo reduzca de manera significativa los ingresos de Rusia por la venta de petróleo.

The document summarizes the reports from the LSE Commission on the Future of Britain in Europe. The Commission convened a series of hearings with experts, practitioners, politicians and representatives from different sectors to discuss various implications of a potential Brexit. Key topics discussed included the economic impacts, impacts on the labor market and financial regulation. While most economic studies find Brexit would negatively impact the UK economy, the implications are complex and there would likely be varying regional and sectoral effects. Brexit could also have constitutional impacts within the UK and changes to the relationships between the central government and devolved administrations.

White Paper Working Draft
This document proposes revamping the Common European Asylum System by collaborating with states in Eastern Europe and creating a list of safe countries of origin. It analyzes four approaches: amending the Dublin Regulation, writing a new asylum system, joint processing programs, and increasing responsibility of Bosnia and Albania. The recommended approach emphasizes opening cooperation with Eastern European states like Albania and Bosnia to address cultural barriers while offering them economic incentives. It also advocates continuing to establish a common list of safe countries of origin to streamline the asylum process. This balanced approach aims to resolve issues over cultural differences, economic stresses, and population pressures within the EU.

Stock Flow Consistent Models and Agent Based Models
This document provides an overview of Stephen Kinsella's work on building a Stock Flow Consistent (SFC) macroeconomic model combined with an Agent Based Model (ABM). The goal is to create a policy evaluation model comparable to those used by central banks. It will include heterogeneous agents from different sectors (households, firms, banks, government) that interact according to simple behavioral rules. The model aims to better understand economic crises without relying on representative agent or rational expectations assumptions. Further work includes building a benchmark model, studying agent mobility, and numerical techniques for simulating large SFC models.
Stock flow modelling and agent based modelling
This document provides context for a presentation on stock flow consistent models and agent based models. It discusses the stock flow consistent methodology, which models the economy based on flows of funds between sectors using balance sheets and transaction matrices. The goal is to build macroeconomic models that are internally consistent and can be used to simulate policy experiments. Two applications are discussed: an Irish macroeconomic model that looks at the economy from a balance sheet perspective, and an earlier stock flow consistent agent based model. Further work plans to estimate these types of models.
Accesstalk pdf
This document discusses government budgets and taxation. It explains that budgets help governments plan for services by making educated guesses about revenues and expenditures. When expenditures exceed revenues, the government must borrow to cover the difference. It also discusses different types of taxes like income tax, VAT, and carbon taxes. The future may include more property and water taxes as the government aims to reduce borrowing. The document considers different perspectives on taxes and whether all families should receive the same child benefit amount.
Modeling Aggregation and Interlinkages
This document analyzes the linkages between different sectors of the Irish economy that contributed to the financial crisis. It discusses 3 key linkages: 1) How rising household credit led to rising debt levels. 2) How private sector debt accumulated and was transferred to the public sector balance sheet. 3) How expectations of continued growth were not met with reality as the economy entered a demand-deficient recession. The document uses charts and data to show trends in household borrowing, debt, asset prices, unemployment and other economic indicators to demonstrate these interlinkages and how Ireland's crisis emerged.
Irish Times Innovation Roadshow Talk
The document discusses issues related to funding for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Ireland, noting that access to credit is a key problem for SMEs but that learning to thrive in a low demand, low credit environment is also important. It provides context on Ireland's economic downturn following the financial crisis and argues that policy should be redirected towards initiatives that support SMEs, as businesses of all sizes can help reduce unemployment. Data is presented on lending to SMEs, wages by firm size and nationality, and an estimate of approximately €100 million per year needed in SME credit.
Regulation a European Perspective
This document summarizes research on financial regulation from a European perspective conducted by Stephen Kinsella and Vincent O'Sullivan from UL. It provides an overview of their projects modeling interactions between financial regulation and EU macroeconomic balance sheets from 1980-2012. It proposes alternative risk management mechanisms for the Irish case but generalizable to the EU situation. The document lists several of their selected publications on topics like the Irish banking crisis, UK regulatory reform, and the EU recapitalization proposals. It outlines areas for further research and the implications of lacking rigorous macroeconomic analysis to accompany new financial regulations in Europe. Finally, it provides context on why financial regulation has become an important topic and defines key concepts like what regulation aims to do and reasons for
Is Ireland the Role Model for Austerity?
1. Ireland experienced strong economic growth from 2006-2007 but then suffered a severe economic downturn from 2008-2009 as the global financial crisis hit. GDP and GNP declined sharply.
2. The document discusses whether Ireland's program of austerity measures is the appropriate policy response or "role model" for other countries like Greece experiencing economic crises.
3. The author analyzes Ireland's economic data from 2006-2012 and unemployment levels over time to evaluate the effects of austerity and debate if it is the right approach for recovery.
Buy Limerick.
This document discusses the history and development of Limerick from the 1860s to today. It analyzes theories of urban development and the logic of post-war export-led growth.

The document provides instructions for students on completing a peer review assignment using Turnitin. It outlines that students must submit their paper and peer reviews by certain deadlines. For the peer review, students are asked to evaluate four areas - organization, referencing, grammar/style, and content. They must provide feedback and recommend a grade for the papers they review. The document also provides the Turnitin class ID and enrollment password needed to set up an account, how to submit a paper, and how to access and complete the peer reviews.
Budget2011: Where to now?
The document discusses Ireland's budget challenges over the past several years. It shows graphs of government spending and revenues from 2000-2015 that illustrate growing deficits as spending exceeded revenues. It notes Ireland had to undertake a 4-year plan with the EU/IMF to reduce borrowing and get public finances under control. Key points in budgets from 2009-2011 included slashing capital investment, providing flood relief funds, introducing tax breaks for startups, and considering pension and carbon tax reforms.

Takes a complex systems view of the legal system in Ireland, argues constitutional reform needs to be simulated before undertaking such wild changes.
International Economics Guest Lecture
The document discusses different types of tariffs such as import tariffs, export tariffs, ad valorem tariffs, and specific tariffs. It analyzes the effects of tariffs on small and large countries, finding that tariffs typically result in deadweight welfare losses for small countries but can potentially increase welfare for large countries through improvements in their terms of trade. However, the optimal tariff theory does not consider the likelihood of retaliation from other countries in response to new tariffs.
The Margins of Viability
This study calculated the total cost of keeping one extremely low birth weight infant alive in the hospital for 212 days to be €611,497.38, with a marginal cost of an extra week of life being €8531. The researchers gathered highly detailed cost data from 176 variables recorded in the patient's case and assigned unit costs to calculate total, variable, fixed, and marginal daily costs - finding that the cost was much higher than estimates from other studies in the UK and US.
Designing a Strategy for Economic Recovery
Ireland has experienced an unprecedented economic downturn that has wiped out much of the wealth gained in recent years. The recent budget outlined further cuts and austerity measures to address fiscal issues. Long-term challenges include an aging population, climate change, and pension funding that will require massive investment in infrastructure to stimulate the economy and prepare for the future. Municipal bonds are proposed as a mechanism to fund this needed infrastructure spending.

US & EU Linkages: How did they contribute to the crisis?
1. The current banking crisis is best explained by the history of financial regulation, which allowed strong linkages between the US and EU systems that amplified the crisis.
2. Linkages between the US and EU financial systems through international debt markets were much stronger in the current crisis compared to previous crises, exacerbating the problems.
3. Implementation of new financial regulations may not be sufficient to prevent another major crisis in the 2020s, as credit markets have a tendency to breed their own downfall through increasing leverage and risky lending, according to Minsky's theories on financial instability.
Social Media as a Bridge between Teaching and Research
Here's a talk I gave on Tuesday to a symposium on Social Media with Prof. Gerry McKiernan, revolving around using social media tools like this blog, the text messaging software, and The Twitter, etc, to communicate and interact with my students.
A Matching Model with Friction and Multiple Criteria
We present a model of matching based on two character measures.
There are two classes of individual. Each individual
observes a sequence of potential partners from the opposite class.
One
measure describes the "attractiveness" of an individual.
Preferences are common according to
this measure: i.e. each individual prefers highly attractive partners and all individuals
of a given class agree as to how attractive individuals of the opposite class are. Preferences are
homotypic with respect to the second measure, referred to as "character" i.e.
all individuals prefer partners of a similar character.
Such a problem may be interpreted as e.g. a job search problem in which the classes
are employer and employee, or a mate choice problem in which the classes are male and
female.
It is assumed that
attractiveness is easy to measure and observable with certainty. However,
in order to observe the character of an individual, an interview (or courtship) is required.
Hence, on observing the attractiveness of a prospective partner an individual must decide whether he/she wishes
to proceed to the interview stage. Interviews only occur by mutual consent. A pair can only be formed
after an interview. During the interview phase the prospective pair
observe each other's
character, and then decide whether they wish to form a pair.
It is assumed that mutual acceptance is required for pair formation to
occur. An individual stops searching on finding a partner.
This paper
presents a general model of such a matching process. A particular case is
considered in which character "forms a ring" and has a uniform distribution.
A set of criteria based on the concept of a subgame
perfect Nash equilibrium is used to define the solution of this particular game. It is shown that
such a solution is unique. The general form of the solution is derived and a procedure for finding
the solution of such a game is given.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
