Where is the Global Economy going and how can we Make it Better for People?

Speaking @FestivalofIdeas in Bristol today on "Where the global economy is going and how to make it work better for people." Plenty to discuss...#economicsfest

Where is the global economy heading? @MyStephanomics keynote now at #economicsfest @FestivalofIdeas @triodosuk  http://www.ideasfestival.co.uk/events/stephanie-flanders/ …

@MyStephanomics Stephanie Flanders “we need to think of social infrastructure in the same way as physical infrastructure” @FestivalofIdeas

Stimulating ideas @FestivalofIdeas #economicsfest Quality of growth matters. How? Integration of economic and social policies together, not the latter clearing up the mess of economic interventions and increased disparity.  https://twitter.com/MyStephanomics/status/930862366228733952 …

Really interesting argument against universal basic income from @MyStephanomics: so #sorrynotsorry we can't provide you with fulfilling jobs, have a cheque instead #economicsfest

"We need to think about the world and not just economic models" @MyStephanomics Nobel prize winners in economics are increasingly historians and psychologists #economicsfest

In praise of the wealth tax, @MESandbu #economicsfest  https://www.ft.com/content/106dd958-c952-11e7-aa33-c63fdc9b8c6c …

@MyStephanomics @triodosuk @FestivalofIdeas " an economist is someone good with numbers but who didn't have the personality to be an accountant" as an accountant I'll take that as a compliment!

"You get the banks you want" @MyStephanomics speaking at the #economicsfest in Bristol last night. Looking forward to more thought-provoking debate over the following days @FestivalofIdeas  https://twitter.com/MyStephanomics/status/930862366228733952 …

An inspiring speach from @MyStephanomics on how we can promote and measure inclusive growth. A nice idea very close related with the economic well-being framework. #economicsfest
