A tale of two presidencies

Born and bred in the United States, Bruegel scholars Rebecca
Christie and J. Scott Marcus are joined by director Guntram
Wolff, on a special edition of The Sound of Economics, to talk
about the upcoming US election, the implications it will have for
American and European Economic policies, as well as the impact on
future transatlantic relations.



Rebecca and Scott will walk us through the most crucial domestic
topics, from voter suppression to shrinking republican
demographic, from the covid-19 pandemic to US healthcare system.
On international issues, they look at the approaches the two
administrations will likely take on climate, trade, data privacy,
as well as financial regulations. While a Biden presidency might
be the hope to reinitiate sensible discussions and restore
alliance and partnerships, a Trump administration will very much
likely continue its path on isolationism.
