The Public Economy Project at SCIS invites you to The Role of Fiscal Think Tanks seminar on 16 May, 15:00 - 17:00 (SAST).
The Public Economy Project at the Southern Centre for Inequality Studies invites you to the launch of their Working Paper, The Role of Fiscal Think Tanks in Fiscal Policy: Global patterns and lessons for South Africa. The launch seminar titled the Role of Fiscal Think Tanks, will be looking at the vital role of fiscal think tanks in today's turbulent fiscal and democratic landscapes. Drawing from Philipp Krause's paper on Fiscal Institutions, we will discuss some important institutional differences that shape fiscal policymaking and how those differences affect a think tank’s role. Lastly, we will consider the most important types of fiscal think tanks that have emerged, with reference to some country examples, and make some suggestions for implications for South Africa.
