NOVAFRICA Podcast: Slack and Economic Development
New Podcast Season! NOVAFRICA Sustainable Development Talks – Season 7 Premiere
We’re excited to launch Season 7 of the NOVAFRICA Sustainable Development Talks podcast!
🔊 In Episode 1, we welcome Dennis Egger from the University of Oxford to discuss his research paper, “Slack and Economic Development.”
This episode discusses how the underutilization of labor and resources affects productivity in microeconomic settings in developing countries. We also look into the role of input indivisibility in small firms and key policy recommendations to address inefficiencies.
Join us for an insightful conversation on how slack in labor markets and production processes can impact economic development and what can be done to unlock greater efficiency and growth.
