About

We are economists and thinkers from a range of disciplines who challenge conventional wisdom and advance ideas to better serve society.

Research

We develop research that challenges economic orthodoxy and serves society.

Articles

Commentary, analysis, interviews, and research summaries by INET-affiliated writers.

Video

Interviews, presentations and video series with provocative economic thinkers, public figures and students.

Podcast

Economics and Beyond with Rob Johnson, a podcast featuring interviews with some of the world’s most important thinkers, artists, and activists about the pressing issues of our time. The podcast is also available on all major podcasting platforms, such as Apple, Spotify, Google, and Podbean.

Education

Video series and courses for students and educators interested in exploring new economic thinking.

Events

To foster new economic thinking, we host convenings that gather together a diverse community of thinkers from different fields, countries, and schools of thought.

YSI

Through the Young Scholars Initiative (YSI), INET provides support to students, young professionals, or others who embrace new and critical ways of thinking about the economy. YSI fosters conversation among those who wish to engage with new economic thinking and connects young scholars to the Institute’s vast network of economists.

Juan Carlos Escanciano

I am originally from Madrid, Spain. I attended Universidad Complutense de Madrid, where I received a B.S. in math, and University Carlos III de Madrid where I received a Ph.D. in Economics in 2004. Following two years on the faculty of the Universidad de Navarra, in Pamplona, Spain, I came to Indiana University in 2006 as an Assistant Professor of Economics. My research interests fall broadly into the area of econometric theory, with an emphasis on specification testing in econometric models for cross section and time series sequences. Most of my research has focused on the development of consistent specification tests using the modern theory of empirical processes for dependent data. I have published papers in Journal of the American Statistical Society, Journal of Econometrics, Econometric Theory, Statistica Sinica, Computational Statistics and Data Analysis.

Nonparametric Euler Equation Identication and Estimation

Paper Working paper | By Juan Carlos Escanciano, Stefan Hoderlein, Arthur Lewbel, Oliver Linton, and Sorawoot Srisuma | Sep 2015

We consider nonparametric identification and estimation of pricing kernels, or equivalently of marginal utility functions up to scale, in consumption based asset pricing Euler equations. Ours is the first paper to prove nonparametric identification of Euler equations under low level conditions (without imposing functional restrictions or just assuming completeness).
