Abstract

The current COVID-19 crisis highlights long-standing institutional issues in a situation characterized by permanent change, global interactions and technological change so that the crisis might trigger long-term adjustments in order to make welfare states and employment systems more resilient, reducing the need for further emergency measures. The main objective of the project is to understand why and how countries respond differently to the COVID-19 shock and to what extent they can actually make their institutional settings more resilient. Empirically, the running IZA crisis response monitoring, jointly run by IZA and a number of country experts from the IZA Network provides up-to-date evidence on labor market and social consequences of COVID-19, on institutional reforms and their effects
