Join us as we talk with Professor Massimo Morelli, whose research spans economics, politics, and law. Having worked at top universities and now researching at LISER, he explains how trust shapes our economy and politics.
He breaks down two types of trust: trust between people and businesses (horizontal), and trust in our institutions (vertical). Both are key to how well countries and markets work.
We then discuss why populism is growing and how it affects the economy. Morelli explains that populist leaders win support by making straightforward promises, like protecting local jobs, even if these solutions oversimplify complex problems.
The discussion also extends to the European Union, where Professor Morelli sees opportunities for rebuilding trust through global and European policies that address common challenges, such as unemployment insurance and tax reforms.
