Abstract

A whole brand-new concept was made in Comparative Economics this year and luckily we had the
opportunity to get to know the unique point of views in a newly published book The Palgrave Handbook
of Comparative Economics by Elodie Douarin. Corvinus University of Budapest had a chance to discuss
this exciting new approach with the most prestigious professors in Comparative Economics. Elodie
Douarin from the College of London, Gerard Roland from Berkeley and Bruno Dallago from Trento
helped us to understand the new theory. In the Corvinus side, Zoltán Ádám, András Székely-Doby and
Judit Kálmán professors participated in the discussion. The moderator was Miklós Rosta, Head of
Comparative and Institutional Economics Department.
