Economics at Sussex
Sussex was the first of the new wave of UK universities founded in the 1960s, receiving its
Royal Charter in 1961, with 7 out of 52 students majoring in Economics under the direction
of Michael Lipton. Over the past decades we have developed a reputation for innovation and
inspiration, attracting leading thinkers and researchers to become a leading research university,
as reflected in the 2014 Research Excellence Framework.
The Department of Economics enjoys an international reputation for outstanding teaching and
applied research, particularly in the areas of development, trade, labour, poverty and energy.
Our dynamic department has some 30 members of faculty combining bright early-career
economists with a strong core of experienced senior academics. These include Professor
Alan Winters, who has served as Chief Economist at the UK Department for International
Development (DFID) and Director of the Development Research Group of the World Bank;
Professor Richard Dickens, who is a member of the Low Pay Commission; and Professor Richard
Tol who contributed to the award of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize to the International Panel
on Climate Change (IPCC). The expertise of our faculty spans a broad range of themes, with
particular strength in policy analysis and applied research techniques, but also extending to
economic theory.
Our faculty is driven by a desire to address critical global economic issues and generate impact
through policy-relevant research. Through robust applied research, our findings directly inform
economic policy-making organisations, such as the World Bank, the World Trade Organization,
the UK Department for Business, Innovation & Skills and the US government. Many of our
faculty also hold advisory roles in national and international bodies, such as the Low Pay
Commission, the Global Development Network and Ofsted.
Research highlights
International Trade
We have a long-standing tradition of
research in international trade. Our
research helps to inform trade policy
around the world, while addressing
wider issues such as poverty,
development, migration,
and productivity.
Unravelling firms: demand,
productivity and mark-ups
heterogeneity
There is great interest in estimating
firm-level productivity in several
dimensions of heterogeneity across
firms, and particularly in demand.
We propose a new framework that
simultaneously measures heterogeneity
in technical efficiency, demand, and
mark-ups across firms, while leaving the correlation among the three unrestricted.
Shedding some light on services trade
Border barriers in international services trade have generally fallen over time, yet pronounced
differences across services sectors and countries persist. Our research finds that border effects
for the smallest economies have remained stable, giving rise to a divergent pattern across
countries.
International trade in electricity and renewable energy targets
Several EU member states have a national system of Tradable Green Certificates, whilst also
developing interconnectors that facilitate international trade in electricity. Our research shows
that national renewable energy policy decisions do not align with the EU renewable energy
target in the absence of binding national targets and international trade in electricity.

Poverty and Development
We conduct research into all aspects
of poverty, inequality and economic
development in both developing
and developed countries. This
area of work has always been an
integral aspect of the work of the
Department.
The outcomes of women-friendly
legislation
Exploiting cross-state and cross-time
variation in the implementation
of the reform for identification,
we find evidence that womenfriendly legislation, in the form of equal inheritance rights as men, does not modify the historic
preference for sons in India.
Early labour market transitions of women in Sub-Saharan Africa
In order to understand the deep-rooted social norms preventing women from enhancing their
economic lives we investigate the disadvantages faced by young women in Sub-Saharan Africa
in the labour market and in educational attainment, as well as the role of fertility in relation
to these.
Female labour supply and the escape from poverty
This project explores the transition of female labour supply from a short term coping
mechanism in response to shocks to a situation where the female household member becomes
an importance secondary earner in her own right, and how this enables sustained escape
from poverty.
Migrating out of Poverty
This research focuses on the drivers and development impacts of regional and internal migration
in developing countries in Africa and Asia. Our current focus is to explore networks, remittances
and welfare through the design and collection of new household survey data for five countries.
Revealing discrimination in rental housing market, India
Housing segregation was historically central to the logic of the caste system. Through a field
experiment on one of India’s largest real estate websites we test for religious discrimination in
rental housing and reveal growing religious polarization in India, and explore evolving coping
strategies of disadvantaged minorities including the growth of parallel markets.

Labour, Education and Health
Our research looks at a wide range of
issues in both developed and developing
country settings such as wage levels and
distribution, labour supply and markets,
school performance evaluation, NHS
reforms, the impact of malaria control
on infant mortality, and the evaluation
of policies aimed at boosting maternal
and child health.
The effects of birth registration
on child labour and education
Our research shows that birth registration
laws improved the effectiveness of
minimum working age laws and schooling laws in early 20th century USA. This had long-term
implications for educational attainment and is of relevance today to many developing countries,
where not all births are registered.
Influences of educational choices
Ongoing work shows that political cycles affect school resources in India in numerous ways,
providing a new explanation of why private schools function better than government schools
in a poor institutional setting. In the UK, early results suggest that girls are much poorer than
boys in self-assessing their computer skills at age 15, potentially obfuscating their educational
choices with respect to ICT-related fields.
Evaluation in the public sector: evidence from school inspections
Research into the impact of the English Ofsted school inspections regime provides some of the
first hard empirical evidence on how Ofsted shapes behaviour and affects the education market.
In particular, how school performance responds to the punitive elements of the regime, and the
impact of disclosure of Ofsted inspection ratings on parents’ school choice decisions, as well as
on house prices.
Teacher turnover and student attainment
We use a unique administrative teacher workforce dataset for England to examine the impact
of teacher turnover on secondary school student academic attainment. Our findings suggest
that the academic achievement of 16 year olds in English state schools is slightly reduced by
teacher turnover
Evaluating the impact of 7-day GP opening on A&E attendances
We evaluate a Central London based pilot programme to open general practitioner clinics on
weekends using detailed patient-level data on A&E visits. We find significant drops in A&E visits
by patients in treatment clinics and a significant reduction in A&E visits by elderly patients.
Does birthright citizenship improve integration?
We study the consequences of the introduction of birthright citizenship in Germany in 2000 by
looking at the effect of the reform on the cultural integration of immigrant parents, economic
choices, and health and skills of children affected by the reform.

Environment and Energy
We study the effect of resources on
the economy, assess the value of
environmental amenities, investigate
the impacts of climate change, and
evaluate and design architectures for
international and national climate
policies.
Exploring the relationship between
environment and wellbeing
We are working with organisations
in the financial sector to collect and
analyse panel data on well-being from
employees via a Smartphone app.
Variables cover topics including subjective wellbeing and mood, productivity, and heart rate
variability, with future scope for experimental treatments.
Ethnicity, resources and power
We use geo-coded datasets on ethnic power relations and mineral discovery, as well as
production, to understand the role of natural resources in explaining ethnic power relations in
Africa. Our aim is to explore spatio-temporal patterns in the data.
Understanding the economic impacts of climate change
Through the development of a continually updated integrated assessment model we can gauge
how vulnerability to climate change evolves with economic development. The model is helping
us to understand the economic impact of climate change and the methods and assumptions
that underpin the estimation of the social cost of carbon.
Economic Theory, Behaviour and Experiments
We combine tools and techniques
from microeconomic theory, game
theory, behavioural economics
and experimental economics to
address fundamental questions
about the behaviour of economic
agents, and how such behaviour
should be modelled.
Bargaining: how commitment
claims are used as a tactic in
negotiations
Commitment tactics have long
been recognised as an important
factor in determining bargaining
outcomes, and as a source of
conflict in negotiations — consider
the oft used “red-lines” of politicians. Recent experimental work has tested a prominent
reputation model of such behaviour, and finds evidence that pretending to be obstinate (i.e.
committed) is a strategic force that is well understood by subjects.
Can rationality be taught? Experimental Evidence from India
We use a lab-in-the-field experiment to test for consistency with utility maximization among
women in rural India. Exploiting the random assignment of these women to an adult education
program, we establish the causal effect of education on the degree of consistency. We find that
around 50% of women’s choices violate transitivity and that adult education decreases both the
number of decision-making errors made as well as the severity of these errors.

Quantitative Economic History
Our research delves into the past to gain
an understanding of the impact of social
and economic policies, and the evolution
of living standards and human well-being
across the centuries.
The role of agricultural reforms and
rural productivity
Investigations into how agricultural
reforms and increases in rural productivity
shaped the development of the Chinese
economy in the 1980s and 1990s have
shown that higher agricultural surpluses
provided an important source of capital
for early non-State Owned firms and aided the development of the non-agricultural sector.
Out of Africa: the impact of colonial railways on Africa’s economic geography
Using a panel of highly disaggregated data spanning over one century, the research shows how
colonial railroads calibrated spatial equilibria within African countries. These equilibria persisted
although railroads collapsed and road networks expanded considerably post independence.
Measuring global income inequality
Based on the results of household expenditure surveys, we are calculating new estimates of
world inequality in the period from the end of the nineteenth century to the 1960s, to enhance
our understanding of the history of global living standards and the distributional consequences
of long-term economic growth so as to inform policy design today.
Public service performance in developing countries
Using a panel of several thousand Kenyan police officers, our research shows how ethnic
politics encroached and changed the behaviour of the members of the Kenya Police Force in the
post independence period.

Economics Degrees at Sussex
At the University of Sussex we are developing the next generation of economists. With a strong
international atmosphere, we have a vibrant community of around 500 undergraduate students
and 100 postgraduate students at Masters and PhD level sharing their ideas with faculty who
are top economic thinkers and policy influencers. Both our undergraduate and postgraduate
degrees are enriched by our research, with a growing degree of optionality embedded in our
programmes, reflecting are broadening research interests.
MSc Economics
Our flagship Masters programme equips students with skills and knowledge in applied
economics to become successful, policy-oriented economists in government, international
organisations or in academia. The highest importance is attached to basing applied work
on sound theoretical foundations, as well as using best practice quantitative techniques in
estimating and testing models. The ‘internship’ variant of the MSc allows students to take a
three-month ‘internship’, such as a placement in an international organisation or a research
assistantship in a university.
MSc Development Economics
Explores development issues covering poverty, inequality, economic growth, stabilisation
and debt. Students learn how to evaluate policy and deal with complex issues systematically
and creatively, developing the skills required for employment as economists in challenging
circumstances.
MSc International Business Economics
Enhances the study of international business with a solid grounding in the economic theory
that explains business behaviour. Develop knowledge of micro-economic principles relating to
the theories of firms and consumers, and macroeconomic principles underpinning national and
international economies.
MSc International Finance and Economics
Provides an understanding of the impact of finance and financial markets on the wider
global economy. Students explore theory of finance and quantitative methods in a way that
emphasizes logical development and application.
For more information please see: www.sussex.ac.uk/economics/pgstudy/2016/taught
PhD Economics
We have a lively community of postgraduate research students, engaged in both theoretical and
applied research in all of the key themes of the department. Many go on to become successful,
policy-oriented economists in government, international organisations, as well as in academia.

Plenary Session: Minimum Wages

Discussants:

3 Stephen Machin, University College London
Minimum wages have never been so popular. More than 100 countries worldwide now
have a statutory minimum wage and politicians across the UK, the US and other OECD
countries are implementing substantial increases in minimum wage levels. On 1 April,
the UK Chancellor’s ‘National Living Wage’ will come into force and is set to increase to
60% of median earnings by 2020. Yet two decades ago, the common view was that
minimum wages do more harm than good. In this session, Princeton economist and former
US presidential adviser Alan Krueger will take us through the past 30 years of minimum
wage research to understand how academic and political views have shifted. We will hear
responses from Richard Blundell, Arindrajit Dube and Stephen Machin on recent increases in
the US and the UK and the issue of how minimum wages interact with in-work benefits.
