FEDMONEY – ERC Starting Grant

Central banks typically set a single interest rate that applies uniformly across their jurisdiction, which can result in suboptimal monetary policy in regions with diverse economic characteristics. The EU-funded FEDMONEY project will investigate the hypothesis that a federalised monetary policy, based on federal central banking structures, could modulate monetary policy differently in economically heterogeneous regions. The project will conduct a systematic legal and economic analysis of monetary federalism and explore its untold legal history in the United States and Europe. It will also consider the constitutional theories of federalism in both jurisdictions, as well as the role of decentralization of monetary policy in the history of economic thought, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the potential benefits and challenges of federalised monetary policy.

The Post-doctoral project

The fellowship provides a full-time employment opportunity for a duration of three years (a one-year contract, renewable twice), starting in September 2025. The fellow’s main task will be to develop a post-doctoral project fitting within the broader framework of the research project. The candidate’s project should explore the interplay between capital flows and global/regional imbalances at both global and regional levels. The candidate should have a good prior understanding of the working of the interaction between capital flows and imbalances in the context of the Bretton Woods system and/or the eurozone crisis. The candidate could explore these issues either through the lens of political economy or as a topic in the history of economic ideas. The project will explore these issues further in the early history of the US Federal Reserve as well as the project of European monetary integration prior to the euro.

Qualifications

We are looking for a candidate with a PhD in economics or a related field with experience in the history of economic thought. The following requirements apply:

  • A PhD degree in economics or a related discipline, with experience in the history of economic thought or political economy, in particular related to monetary issues
  • Proficiency in English. Fluency in French will be considered an advantage
  • Excellent communication and writing skills
  • Be a good team player

Application

The application should be sent by email as a single PDF file to [email protected]. The deadline to submit your application is June 14th. Your application file should contain the following:

  • A detailed letter of motivation, identifying your research interests in general, explaining previous research experience, and your interest to apply for the FEDMONEY research project specifically
  • A CV, including publication list

Interviews will take place during the last week of June. Hiring decisions will be taken as soon as possible after the interviews.
