Jérôme Trotignon

Jérôme Trotignon is a Senior Lecturer in Economics at IAE Lyon, affiliated with Triangle UMR 5206 research laboratory. He specializes in solidarity finance, regional integration, and climate economics. His research bridges theoretical economics with applied studies on sustainable development and financial commons.

Key research interests include territorial solidarity finance mechanisms (e.g., Cigales clubs), regional trade integration dynamics, and environmental policy analysis related to CO2 emissions and deforestation in Brazil. He has published extensively on monetary unions, asymmetric economic shocks, and development economics.

Recent work explores commons theory applied to solidarity savings systems, showing how local financial circuits align with Elinor Ostrom's principles of collective resource management. His Amazon deforestation studies use econometric methods to analyze land-use impacts on carbon emissions.

He has presented at major conferences including the GESS meetings on solidarity enterprises and RIUESS on commons theory. His research also covers historical aspects of Latin American economic policies and European monetary integration.
