Jonathan Hall wins the Sakip Sabanci International Research Award

April 2020

Jonathan Hall’s paper, “Can Tolling Help Everyone? Estimating the Aggregate and Distributional Consequences of Congestion Pricing”, was published in February 2020 in the Journal of the European Economic Association. He was selected as a recipient of this $10,000 award by a committee consisting of members of Sabanci University, the University of Pennsylvania (Wharton), the University of British Columbia (Sauder) and Brown University.

Established in 2005, Sabanci University’s International Research Award was established to acknowledge outstanding work that focuses on the role of government in implementing economic policy, running the gamut from income inequality and energy to air pollution and housing. The University states that for work to be considered for the award, it “must contribute to the economics literature at the universal level as well as generating ideas that can in principle benefit Turkey.”
