Economic ReviewThe Economic Review is a quarterly journal, edited by academics at the University of Southampton and aimed primarily at A-level students studying or interested in economics. IFS contributes a column to each issue about fiscal policy. The most recent articles are shown below:
The period from 2003 to the summer of 2008 saw significant and sustained increases in global food prices, especially for staple goods such as maize, rice and wheat.
In 2010 the government will raise the rate of income tax on the UK's highest earners.
The Government is concerned that we are eating too much saturated fat.
The Institute for Fiscal Studies held a day of talks on issues in public economics of interest to undergraduates in economics and related disciplines on 13 December 2011. The aim was to focus on the policy implications of research carried out at the institute; similar lectures have been delivered at Oxford and Cambridge universities. Below you will find presentation slides with audio recordings for the 2011 lectures; prior to 2011 you can download slides. We are grateful to the ESRC for their support; this has enabled us to record the 2011 lectures and make them accessible to a wider audience.
These slides were delivered as part of the IFS public economics lectures 2011.
