Orestis Troumpounis
I am a Professor of Economics in Ca’ Foscari University of Venice.
In the past I held positions in the University of Padova, Lancaster University, and Carlos III in Madrid. I obtained my PhD in Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.
My research is on political economy and public economics combining knowledge from economics and political science and I have published in journals of both disciplines.
