How can the economy overcome the crisis? With less state, more market? Or rather industrial policy – only better? And what can be done to increase acceptance of climate policy?  All these questions are at the heart of the Bundestag election campaign. But what do people in the country want?  In a major survey, we tested opinions on economic policy, climate, debt and inequality, as well as the appeal of old and new economic narratives.

 

We will discuss the results of the survey in our next New Economy Short Cut: “Economic turnaround, but how?” Public opinion on big economic questions with Jens Südekum, Professor of Economics at the University of Duisburg, Maja Göpel, transformation researcher and founder of ‚Mission Wertvoll‘ and Achim Wambach, President of the ZEW – Leibniz Centre for European Economic Research on 5 February 2025 at 11:30 – via Zoom – REGISTER HERE. The event will be held in German. We look forward to your participation.
