The Agence nationale de la recherche (ANR) announced the final list of projects they retained for their 2021 Generic Call for Proposals.
We are pleased to announce that the project Prosocial Behaviour: A Tale of Two Images (SOSELF), coordinated for the Department by permanent faculty member Emeric HENRY, in collaboration with CNRS faculty member Roberto GALBIATI, has been awarded a “PRC ANR Grant” (collaborative research project). They will be working in partnership with researchers from the Paris School of Economics (PSE), the École normale supérieure (ENS) and the Aix-Marseille School of Economics (AMSE).
PRC ANR grants aim to promote the pooling of the different teams’ skills and resources to accelerate the development of the proposed research and achieve results that will beneficial to all partners. PRC grants finance basic research and stimulate inter- and multidisciplinary approaches.
SOSELF is scheduled to start in June 2022 for a duration of 48 months. It will look at the interaction of self- and social-image and its impact on ethical and cooperative behaviours, an interaction that has not yet been studied.
Congratulations to Emeric HENRY and Roberto GALBIATI !

More about Emeric HENRY and his research
Roberto GALBIATI is a CNRS Professor (DR). His primary research interests are law and economics, political economy and applied microeconomics. He has studied extensively how laws and individual motivations affect cooperative behavior and compliance, the effects of law enforcement on illegal behavior and the emergence and stability of legal and political institutions.
When Pierre-Philippe COMBES joined the Department’s permanent faculty this past summer, he was already working as a partner on a PRC ANR Project awarded in 2019.
We are pleased to announce that his project Job Complementarities in Employment: Consequences for Minorities (JOCE) has been transferred to the Department.
Coordinated by the Aix-Marseille School of Economics (AMSE), the JOCE project’s aim is to consider the impact of job complementarities in employment on segregation, inequality, and social mobility. The project will study three different sources of complementarities (at the level of the firm; in relation to the geographical origin of individuals; and at the level of the household) to deepen our understanding of how they shape earnings dispersion across different groups and hence contribute to explaining the causes and consequences of inequality.
