Public economics [syllabus in French]
Public economics concerns the intervention of public authorities in the economic sphere. The course takes a microeconomics perspective on the relationship between the tools available to public authorities and their potential objectives.
The first part of the course introduces the idea of market efficiency, as well as the justifications for public intervention (a) when markets are not efficient, (b) when public authorities have a goal of justice beyond efficiency. The second part addresses the principles of taxation, from both a positive perspective (effects of taxation) and a normative one (theory of optimal taxation).
