SUMMARY:Paolo Piacquadio (Oslo) - "The equal-sacrifice social welfare function"
DESCRIPTION:Microeconomics Seminar : \nTime: 12:15pm – 1:30pm\nDate:  2nd June 2021\nRoom: VISIO \nPaolo Piacquadio (Oslo) – “The equal-sacrifice social welfare function” \n\nAbstract: \nWe propose and axiomatically characterize a family of welfare criteria that prioritize individuals making larger sacrifices.  \nBy combining efficiency with a concern for equality of sacrifice\, our criteria avoid serious shortcomings of utilitarianism. \n We illustrate our results within the Mirrleesian optimal taxation framework.  \nOur simulated equal-sacrifice optimal tax schedule for the US has marginal tax rates in line with the US tax system and  \nabout 20 percentage points lower than the utilitarian recommendation. \nWith Kristoffer Berg. \n  \n\nOrganizers:\nRoxana Fernandez Machado (CREST)\, Julien Combe (CREST)\, and Matias Nunez (CREST)\nSponsors:\nCREST\n  \n
