Paolo Manasse is a Professor at the University of Bologna, specializing in Macroeconomics, International Economics, and Political Economy. His research focuses on fiscal policy, banking and debt crises, European integration, and the political economy of economic reforms. Notable work includes analyses of Brexit’s economic implications, the Italian lockdown’s economic impacts during the pandemic, and sovereign debt sustainability in the Eurozone. He has extensively studied structural reforms in Southern Europe, Cyprus’s financial sector crisis, and the trade-offs between unemployment persistence and resilience.
His research spans over three decades, addressing topics such as globalization’s twin effects on firms, fiscal rules and their counterproductive impacts, and the role of institutions in shaping economic outcomes. He critiques EU fiscal frameworks like the Stability and Growth Pact, advocating for more flexible policy approaches. His work integrates theoretical models with empirical analyses, often using input-output methodologies to assess economic shocks.
Key contributions include predicting sovereign debt crises, evaluating policy responses to economic downturns, and exploring the legal and economic feasibility of Eurozone exits (e.g., Italexit). While no scientific awards are explicitly listed, his influence is evident through frequent policy commentary and academic publications addressing pressing European economic challenges.
