Warwick Economics Lecture with Dr Thomas Curran
OC0.03

The Department of Economics are delighted to announce Dr Thomas Curran, Associate Professor in the Department of Psychological and Behavioural Science at LSE and author of The Perfection Trap, as the final speaker in our Warwick Economics Lecture series for the academic year.

'The Perfection Trap'

Date: Friday 26 April
Time: 3 - 4pm followed by a short drinks reception
Location: OC0.03

This event is for students and staff only and registration is required in order to attend.

Christian Soegaard will introduce the speaker and chair the session. You will have the opportunity to ask questions in a Q&A at the end of the lecture, as well as network at our drinks reception in the Oculus foyer after the lecture has taken place.

About the Lecture

This talk will be about the trap of perfectionism. Thomas will discuss the overzealous hypercriticality that germinates in a society that always wants more, and how, while perfectionism ostensibly seeks to improve us, it ultimately leads to hugely negative consequences for our personal wellbeing, performances, and the welfare of our communities at large. If you've ever wondered what's the matter with perfectionism, or why it seems to be the defining characteristic of our times, this talk is for you.

About the Speaker

Faculty of Social Sciences Public Lecture with Andrew Oswald
FAB0.03

The Department of Economics are delighted to host our first public lecture in the Faculty of Social Science's lecture series with Andrew Oswald, Professor of Economics and Behavioural Science.

Societal Unhappiness and the Uncertain Future of Democracy

Date: Tuesday 30 April
Time: 5.30-6.30pm followed by a short drinks reception
Location: FAB0.03 

This event is open to the public.

About the Talk

Approximately 40% of citizens in Western Europe now report high levels of worry, and over time there has been a continuing upward trend in ‘national worry’. This trend has been visible well before COVID, the invasion of Ukraine, and the conflict in Gaza, showing that something foundational and unrealised is happening within Western society.

Andrew Oswald will discuss his research into the causes of this concerning upward trend, exploring why an unhappy population puts a country's trust in government and the future of democracy at risk.

This lecture will be followed by a drinks reception, where you will have the opportunity to meet the speaker.

About the Speaker

Andrew Oswald is Professor of Economics and Behavioural Science at the University of Warwick. He is also an honorary Senior Research Fellow in the Wellbeing Research Centre at Manchester Harris College, University of Oxford, and a Research Fellow at the IZA Institute in Bonn with special responsibility for work on climate change. Recently, Andrew has been appointed Chair of a new Network Advisory Panel of the IZA Institute of Labour Economics. His research is principally in applied economics and quantitative social science.

Since 2010 he has served on the board of reviewing editors of the journal Science. Andrew Oswald's recent work has included research on the behavioural science of climate change.

    CAGE Summer School 2024: Pre-doctoral Research Training

    Runs from Monday, July 01 to Wednesday, July 03.

    A three-day Summer School which will provide a comprehensive introduction to the tools and systems needed for applied social science research.

    Organiser: Professor Mirko Draca, University of Warwick (CAGE Director)

    Lecturers/Presenters: Arthur Turrell (Bank of England), Eric Melander (Birmingham), Peter John Lambert (LSE), Marie Segger (The Economist magazine).

    PROGRAMME TBC

    The summer school will cover the following topics: -

    • Coding for Economists: Organising a professional coding workflow using Github and Python.
    • Data Management and Analysis: Case studies on how to put together complex repeated cross-section and panel datasets, along with how to present and analyse them.
    • Digitisation of Historical Data: Converting hard copy tabular and text data into electronic form. How to employ OCR (Optical Character Recognition) tools and what you can do when those methods won’t work. How to use GIS (Geographic Information System) techniques to extract spatial data from maps. Using non-standard approaches to measure historical phenomena.
    • Working on the Cloud: Your desktop machine is too slow so you have to move to cloud computing. We’ll provide a guide to setting up and running big data analysis on Amazon Web Services (AWS).
    • Using LLMs in Economics Research: Large-language Models are all the rage. We’ll show how they can be used to build new types of data, for example, the codification of large text databases into a structured form.
    • Research Design: Faculty will present examples of their research and go under the surface to show the data construction, analysis and workflows that were involved in putting together a paper.
    • Data Visualisation: How to build creative and well-designed data visualisations.

    The timetable of the summer school will be organised around lectures in the first half of the day with research presentations / case studies in the second half. There’ll also be chances for hands-on and participatory work by students in the afternoon sessions.
