Abstract
Three core questions bind this proposal together: how to foster growth; how to share growth and how to sustain growth
1 HOW CAN WE FOSTER GROWTH? We plan to develop a new Growth Programme focussing on bolstering innovation in its widest sense, both technological and organisational. It will co-ordinate the Centre's growth work agenda and follow up the LSE Growth Commission's policy proposals. Next, the Trade programme will analyse the impact of globalisation with a targeted focus on how to make a dramatic improvement in British export performance. A core policy question is what the UK's future relationship with other countries will be, in particular with the European Union (EU) and South-East Asia. Third, the Education and Skills programme will examine human capital investment by analysing the recent transformation of the educational system using new tools of competition and organisation theory. Two core questions are: have educational reforms worked - especially for the disadvantaged - and, what can be done to improve the intermediate skills base, a long-standing area of UK weakness.
2 HOW CAN WE SHARE THE BENEFITS OF GROWTH? A problem with growth in the decades prior to the global financial crisis was that prosperity was shared very unequally. To study the spatial dimensions of inequality, we propose a new Urban programme. This will emphasise cities as key economic units and address why so much UK growth is concentrated in the South East.This is a key policy issue in the light of the commitment to decentralise power within England by all main UK parties. Following the City Growth Commission, the policy focus will be how local policy makers can help their cities prosper. Alongside the large productivity fall since the crisis, there has been a big fall in real wages - something unique in post-war UK recessions. Some wage stagnation occurred also in the run-up to the crisis, as it has over a longer time in the US. The Labour programme will examine these changes and whether they are linked to the declining share of GDP going to employees across the world. We will look at earnings, income and wealth inequalities across individuals, but also on why women's progress has stalled. In all these aspects, we are interested not just in explaining why growth is unequally shared, but also how we could design institutions and policies that generate a "double dividend" of more growth and less inequality.
3 WHAT KIND OF GROWTH DO WE WANT? Increasing GDP per capita remains important as UK average incomes track this over the long run. But growth must be sustainable, it must deal with environmental challenges, it should expand not undermine people's happiness and it should not be at the expense of social cohesion. Dealing with climate change requires both containing demand for greenhouse gases and stimulating clean technologies and we propose a wide portfolio of green growth projects directed to this. Of course, it is not just technology that affects people's lives - it is also the beliefs and norms that regulate the interactions between people. Growth involves change that has significant impacts on people's lives and neighbourhoods, often causing great stress. Our Community programme will investigate the impact of economic changes (both direct and indirect through changes like immigration) on social cohesion, and will help to develop policies to ensure that growth benefits all communities. CEP has been at the forefront of looking beyond GDP and our Wellbeing programme will ambitiously develop a model of subjective well-being over the life-course, in order to show the quantitative causal impact of factors like parenting, schooling, employment, income and health. Without such knowledge it is impossible for policy-makers to aim effectively at greater wellbeing, even if that is their objective.

Planned Impact
Academics will benefit across global social science as discussed in the previous section. We publish in the world's top economic (and other social science) journals so we clearly benefit academics, especially as we emphasise pushing out the frontier, rather than publishing small increments to the literature.
Improving our knowledge about what drives growth can have a powerful impact on the wellbeing of all people. The power of basic social scientific breakthroughs is that many benefit, even though the effects are long-run and hard to quantify.
Our key non-academic beneficiaries are national and international policy-makers, civil servants, international financial institutions, businesses, journalists, think tanks, NGOs and, above all, the general public. We have discussed our proposal with many users such as BIS, the DE and UK Treasury (see letters of support from Permanent Secretary of HMT and BIS,Head of the NHS and others at http://cep.lse.ac.uk/esrc/ password ESRC32L2014)
We have involved stakeholders in almost all of the proposals. Examples include government agencies, the Bank of England (G1C), BIS (T1A), DECC (G3A), Department of Education. (E1A), European Commission (G2D), HMT (W1C), ILO(G2C), NHS(W2A), OFCOM(U1C), ONS(G2A), UKTI(T2A), UN(W1A), NESTA (G2C);US Census (P1A), World Bank(U1D); Multinationals Coca-Cola (W2B), Google (G3B) McKinsey (P1A), Towers Watson (L1C), United Health (P1A); Start-Ups Crowdcube (G1D), GrowthIntel (G2D), GroveIS (G3C), TechHub (U2D); Charities ARK (E1B) and How to Thrive (W2A), London Rebuilding Society (G3C) NIESR (G2D), and Society of Motor Manufacturers (T2C). Our partnerships with different stakeholders depends on the question at hand and involves discussions at the genesis of a project, sharing of data, analysis and early findings and finally help with events and subsequent dissemination through a variety of mechanisms.
To increase benefits to UK Treasury (the department who make most use of our research) we will build on the success of the CEP/HMT academic associates scheme where individual CEP researchers give early stage pro bono advice on areas of our expertise. We are proposing a series of training events and Executive Education courses to the UK civil service (led by CEP's Daniel Sturm) which will diffuse techniques and CEP research findings.
Our tools for measuring management practices and suggesting improvements (www.managementsurvey.org) will be useful for businesses trying to improve their profitability. We focus on firms which are smaller than those who are usually the customers of major international consultancy firms.
The general public benefits through our wide dissemination. On average, every year we run 164 events. In 2013 we appeared in the print and broadcast media on average 3 times a day and there were 4.66 million website downloads of papers. Our international profile is rising, with 37% of our web visitors and 37% of our media mentions coming from outside the UK. Most of our top ten papers (downloaded more than 50,000 times each during the year) were non-technical presentations of our work, suggesting that our appeal is broad and not confined to academic users. We will produce a professionally produced research magazine, CentrePiece, thrice yearly and reports on those key policy developments to which our research can contribute rigorous evidence. We will press release key pieces of research work each month.

Introduction to the Special Issue on the Economics of the Middle East and North Africa
in Economics of Transition
| Description | Research at the Centre for Economic Performance (CEP) is able to focus on the big questions facing our economy and society, thanks to the ESRC Centre funding. The Centre is able to respond flexibly, and lead public debate, when these questions change, such as under the financial crisis, Brexit and during the current pandemic. A defining quality of the way CEP operates has been to bring different perspectives to the questions we study so that alternative theories can be tested using different models and data. The Centre has developed new methodologies, analysed large-scale data using robust research designs and collected data where it does not already exist for researchers to utilise. Centre research has made major contributions to what we know about the way in which globalisation, technology and institutions (especially those in education and the labour market) impact upon productivity, inequality and well-being. Many of the findings from this work have directly influenced policy: through researchers' advice to government departments and policy practitioners, and active and extensive dissemination of policy publications (like Centrepiece magazine, election briefings and special themed series of reports and papers). |
| Exploitation Route | CEP aims to be a Centre of national and international excellence in the application of economic theory and rigorous empirical analysis to real world economic issues. The Centre has had a significant impact on government policy in the UK and more widely. A unique quality, which CEP brings to LSE, is that it represents one of the few research 'infrastructures' in the social sciences: it is close to LSE's equivalent of a laboratory. It is able to create and sustain a critical mass of world leading research allied with an innovative communications team, which ensures that the research influences real world outcomes. It is home not only to expertise in research in specific fields but also has developed the data infrastructure and expertise to securely host, collect, document, match and apply vast survey and administrative datasets from the UK and around the world to an increasing range of research areas. |

| Description | Our research has always placed a strong focus on the big questions facing the economy and wider society. It has been able to respond flexibly when these change, often leading public debate. Our work on the impact of Brexit, for example, is rooted in the years of theoretical analysis previously undertaken in our Trade Programme. The Centre's research also sets agendas rather than merely reacting to policies as they emerge, as the recommendations on growth and infrastructure from the two LSE Growth Commissions of 2013 and 2017 demonstrate. A defining quality of the way the Centre operates has been to focus different perspectives on the questions under study so that alternative theories can be tested using different models and data. The Centre has developed new methodologies and expertise, analysed large-scale data using robust research designs, and it has collected data where it does not already exist for researchers to use, as well as plugging gaps in research areas when new data emerge. Our overriding aim is to change the way social scientists and policymakers think about the world and to produce empirical research of sufficient breadth and rigour to help formulate - and evaluate - new policies. Over the years, CEP has influenced thinking and policies of almost every government department, the Bank of England, statistical agencies in the UK and abroad, and a wide range of other policy organisations and practitioner groups. Indeed some aspects of CEP's work have entered so deeply into popular discourse that they are no longer identified with the Centre. Selected examples include the benign economic effects of the minimum wage; falling social mobility; the centrality of management quality to firm productivity; and the polarisation of jobs with different skill attributes in the labour market. |

| Description | Advice to House of Lords Select Committee on Economic Affairs Report Building More Homes, July 15th 2016 . . Professor Paul Cheshire as part of a proposal for wider reform of the planning system, suggested that both section 106 and the Community Infrastructure Levy should be abolished and replaced by a single, national development charge of 20 per cent of the sale value of the land. Professor Cheshire stressed that building in line with household projections would not provide enough housing: "The problem with our planning system is that it allocates land on the basis of a forecast of household numbers, not on the basis of a forecast of housing demand or space demand. So we have been systematically undersupplying land since the early 1950s." |

| Impact | Mion advised UK Trade and Investment on the implementation of a Randomized Control Trial to gain sharper insights into the causal impact of the provision of trade services on UK firms. The RCT is currently in its pilot phase and will be based around an export voucher. Firms need to apply to get the voucher to be spent on export support services in the private sector. Some firms will be randomly selected to get the voucher and will be subsequently compared to a control group of firms who applied to the voucher but did not get one. For organisations like this to use such experimental methods is rare. |

| Impact | • The demand model is used to direct the inspections to areas of the highest need / demand for policing, and gives context. What sounds trivial has actually a big impact, as it avoids blanket and undirected inspection, and focuses on the most important areas. This makes it more effective, and cheaper to run. • The forces actively use it to integrate their problem solving (crime prevention) efforts, and to integrate it with other public services. The press report on Cambridgeshire Police use of the model is here: http://www.cambridge-news.co.uk/news/new-police-unit-target-crime-12077495 • Chris Greany - the Commander of the City of London - approves of the usefulness of the model in police work and City of London Police intend to use it to develop proper fraud prevention strategies on the back of it. This will be the first time that such work is based on rigorous research data We intend to take this work forward by presenting to the HMIC board on Tuesday, 21st March 2017 to argue that the CEP's demand model be converted into a fully automated monitoring system, giving both the HMIC and Chief Constables an early warning signal about organisational decline. |

| Impact | CEP Brexit Research cited: House of Lords Hansard - www.parliament.uk During Lords debate on the Article 50 Bill, Lord McKenzie of Luton (Lab) mentioned LSE/CEP research:"One of the most profound choices that the Government are seeking to make is to eschew membership of the single market and the customs union. They are prepared to sacrifice these at the altar of reducing immigration, notwithstanding research, most recently from the Centre for Economic Performance at the LSE, again showing the benefits to national income, taxes and the budget deficit from immigration, and notwithstanding a report from the think tank Global Future that suggests that the Government's approach could mean a fall in current net levels of immigration of no more than 15%, and that might be reduced further by the terms of new free trade agreements, which typically come with a demand for liberalisation on free movement."Related publications 'UK Growth: A New Chapter', LSE Growth Commission Report, February 2017. |

| Impact | 'House of Commons debate on the Spring Budget Following the annual budget announcement, LSE was mentioned in the Commons debate by Stewart Hosie MP (SNP): "The OBR's central forecast is in rather stark contrast to what we already know. The Treasury had reported previously that the UK could lose up to £66 billion from a hard Brexit, and that GDP could fall by almost 10% if the UK reverted to WTO rules, which echoes what the Chair of the Treasury Committee said. Other assessments mirror that. The London School of Economics says: "In the long run, reduced trade lowers productivity." That is a huge problem for the UK. It went on to say:"That increases the cost of Brexit to a loss of between 6.5% and 9.5% of GDP."

| Impact | The Executive Master in Public Policy (EMPP) is a program that has been co-designed and is co-delivered with the Civil Service. The program equips senior civil servants with the cutting-edge analytical tools required to deliver effective policy in an increasingly complex and inter-dependent world. This initiative builds on the 2012 Civil Service Reform Plan to further professionalise UK policy-making. The degree is aimed at the development of people with the talent and drive to reach the very highest levels of the Civil Service Policy Profession, whose careers will see them working on the biggest issues in public policy, and who therefore need to be proficient ambassadors for the best, most modern and most appropriate approaches to policy development. The program has so far taken in a cohort of 28 civil servants in December 2015 and another 28 in December 2016 who are drawn from across the Whitehall departments. The program is run by a steering committee which is chaired by Chris Wormald who is now the Permanent Secretary of the Department of Health. LSE is represented on the steering committee by the two program directors of the Executive Master of Public Policy, Daniel Sturm and Joachim Wehner, and Andrew Brennen, the executive programs development manager. The steering committee meets regularly to discuss the content of the modules and to focus the curriculum on the most pressing public policy challenges faced by the Civil Service. |

| Impact | Work of CEP's Metcalf the Chair of the Migration Advisory Committee and others from CEP has improved the UK policymakers understanding of the impact of immigration on UK labour markets and public services and has been involved in virtually every significant labour market migration policy decision between 2008-16. Much of the work of the Committee drew on background research carried out by the Centre for Economic Performance. Amongst its impact has been the introduction of greater selectivity in Non EU migration 2007-16 by highlighting the key role played by skilled migrants in raising productivity, enhancing employment and fiscal contribution; and the setting of minimum pay thresholds to prevent employers from undertaking insufficient investment in British human capital. Its analysis of work-related migration since 2008 suggests three main conclusions: migration flows are heavily influenced by other polices; skilled migrants yield positive benefits; and enforcement of minimum standards is vital to ensure our flexible labour market boosts the welfare of British residents. |

| Impact | 21st March 2017 The demand model constructed by Tom Kirchmaier for Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) has been formally presented at the HMIC board and has been very positively received. It was mentioned in the 2015 and 2016 State of Policing report that was laid before Parliament by Sir Tom Winsor. The 2016 report can be found here, with the reference to his work on p. 17 . All empirical reference in the PEEL inspection process are based on this work, with an example being found here. Kirchmaier has subsequently been appointed to the Academic Reference Group of HMIC. The demand model has been used to help direct the inspections to areas of the highest need / demand for policing, avoiding blanket and undirected inspection, and focusing on the most important areas. Such a model makes the inspection system more effective, and cheaper to run. Police forces are now using the model to integrate their problem solving (crime prevention) efforts, and to integrate it with other public services. It was also being used by the Home Office to inform the new Police funding formula (which has subsequently been delayed for political reason). Chris Greany - the Commander of the City of London -tweeted positive commendation of the model to colleagues. City of London is now using the model and data to develop fraud prevention strategies. fGoing forward, the plan is to work on a fully automated monitoring system, giving both the HMIC and Chief Constables an early warning signal about organisational decline. Kirchmaier is also actively working with Police forces nationally and internationally to increase the uptake and incorporation of empirical insights into processes. Internationally, he is working with IADB and the police service of Buenos Aires to understand and improve the emergency call centre (911 calls), and with former HMI Steven Otter QPM on some questions relating to security in Asia, and here in particular Myanmar. |

| Impact | House of Commons Library - Briefing Paper Number 06492, 27 April 2017 p.25 (Valero and Van Reenen work on Productivity Plan)Anna Valero and Professor John Van Reenen of the London School of Economics believe the plan is broadly right but question whether it is radical or coherent enough to make a difference: The Plan identifies the chronic problems which need to be addressed to get our productivity back on track, and sets out the government's solutions. Overall, the analysis and priorities seem broadly right and there are a number of positive steps. For example, the emphasis on planning reforms (especially on housing), road infrastructure and vocational skills. However, much of the Plan simply places existing policies into eight drivers of productivity growth. Given the fact that UK output per hour is around 30 per cent lower than the US, France and Germany, is it really radical and coherent enough to yield the kind of growth we need to catch up with our peers? [] Although there are many individually sensible policies, it is difficult to discern a clear growth strategy emerging from the Plan. Without such a vision, it is likely that shorter term considerations will come to dominate, especially as the parliamentary term wears on.57 |

| Title | British Business Census of Entrepreneurs, 1851-1911 |
| Description | The British Business Census of Entrepreneurs, 1851-1911 (BBCE) is a quality-controlled, consistent, and integrated database that is as complete as feasible for all British business proprietors in the period 1851-1911, and aligned to modern definitions used up to the 2011 census. It covers England and Wales for 1851-1911, and Scotland for 1851-1901. It includes as fully as possible all: Employers (those who employed others); Sole proprietor own account self-employed (those who employed no-one else); and Directors of corporations (Limited Companies). BBCE mainly derives from the Integrated Census Microdata (I-CeM) Project (see SN 7856), to which BBCE is linked via individual RecID; but BBCE also infills missing or truncated data in I-CeM using census transcripts from S&N and coding from CEBs, and also provides entrepreneur data for 1871. BBCE makes available employment status codes for all years 1851-1911, occupational coding to main occupation and portfolios, coding of partnerships and directors, and extracts workforce size where given by employers over 1851-81, and for farmers the acreage occupied. There is data linkage and coding of individuals identifiable in the census who were directors of corporations, together with information on their companies. Further information may be found on the BBCE project website. Publications, working papers and presentations are also regularly updated at the Cambridge Group for the History of Population and Social Structure Drivers of entrepreneurship and small business project website. The original data producers and copyright holders of I-CeM are Professors K. Schurer and E.J. Higgs, and the original data producer and copyright holder for S&N is Nigel Bayley. |

| Results and Impact | "City of dreams no more: the impact of Covid-19 on urban workers in India" Bhalotia, Dhingra and Kondirolli conducted a field survey of 8500 workers aged 18 to 40 in India seeking to understand the experience of urban workers during Covid-19. They found that 15.5 percent of workers lost their jobs and 21.7 percent worked zero hours during the period of the survey (May-July 2020). 52 percent of urban workers went without work or pay and received no financial assistance. The pandemic worsened labour income inequality as the earnings of workers in the bottom three quartiles fell and the financial assistance from the government was inadequate. This survey was one of the first o be administered in India during and immediately after the Covid-19 lockdown and it provided initial evidence of the large impact that Covid-19 was having on the urban workers. Moreover, they asked the respondents about job guarantees, a policy that was being debated and implemented in some states in India to assist economic recovery. Despite the policy relevance, there is a lack of academic research on the valuation of this option by urban workers. We filled this gap by providing evidence that urban workers in India would like to have a guarantee of 100 days of work. The research attracted a lot of interest from the policy-makers and the general public in India; and was the basis for our contribution to the debate on urban job guarantees for the IGC India forum. In September 2020, the Indian government announced plans to extend the rural jobs guarantee scheme to cities, to address urban unemployment.

| Results and Impact | Foreign investors love Britain, but Brexit would kill the vibe. According to new research colleagues and I have conducted at the Centre for Economic Performance, leaving the European Union could lead to a fall in inward foreign direct investment into the UK of close to a quarter. This would damage productivity and could lower people?s real incomes by more than 3 per cent. This article apperaed in the Independent on 18 April 2016. |

| Results and Impact | As the Covid-19 pandemic took hold, the CEP set up a Covid-19 hub bringing together existing research, blogs and interviews covering issues such as the need for furlough schemes, using predicted grades for A-level students, and growing inequality. In keeping with the CEP's aim to publish timely, in-depth, impartial economic evidence to inform debate, the Covid-19 analysis series was launched. Each CEP Covid-19 briefing brings together analysis of existing research or original research with recommendations for policy makers. We commissioned new surveys among the self-employed; UK business on innovation uptake; urban workers in India and UK 16-25 year olds of "Generation Covid". • The new Covid-19 analysis series has had more than 106,000 hits: accounting for 28% of the downloads from the 150 publications between Jan 2020 and March 2021. |

| Results and Impact | Article by Jan-Emmanuel De Neve and Nick Powdthavee Despite growing concern over the economic and social implications of the increasing concentration of wealth among a wealthy elite, we continue to know very little about how the growing gap in wealth and income of the top 1% influences the wellbeing of the other 99%. Together with Richard Burkhauser at Cornell University, we decided to find out. We wanted to estimate how the rising income of the 1% relates to average life satisfaction, even where household income and a country's GDP remain constant. We started our research by asking if income inequality at the very top really matters to the life satisfaction of the average person in a country - the results show that there is a correlation between the two.

These characteristics are for the population as a whole - not for those eligible to vote (British citizens), registered to vote and actual voters in the referendum. Nevertheless the variables we use can explain 90 percent of the variation in the vote share across areas. This article was published by Newsweek - Europe on July 7, 2016 |

| Results and Impact | ESRC Festival of Social Science Week event on Social Mobility. Speakers: Sanchia Berg (Today programme) and Lee Elliot Major (Sutton Trust).Chair: Prof Stephen Machin (CEP, LSE) What can we do to improve Britain's low social mobility - one of the most pressing issues facing young people growing up today? Boris Johnson continues a tradition that has stood for generations. Every Prime Minister since the end of World War Two who has attended an English University has attended just one institution: Oxford. Meanwhile 100,000s of children leave school each year without the basics to get on in life. Britain suffers from low social mobility. But how can we improve it? Our panel will discuss potential solutions, and you the audience will vote on the solution. This event is part of the ESRC's Festival of Social Science. |
