Career

Schularick studied at the University of Paris-VII from 1996 and received the Maîtrise there in 1998. He then transferred to the London School of Economics on a DAAD scholarship, where he received an M.Sc. in 1999. He completed a third degree (M.A.) at the Humboldt University of Berlin in 2000.[2]

In 2005, he received his Ph.D. at Free University of Berlin, where he also taught as an assistant professor from 2007 until he received an appointment at the University of Bonn in 2012. Since then, he has been teaching and conducting research there as a W3 professor of macroeconomics.[2] In 2008/09, Schularick went to University of Cambridge as a visiting professor, and in 2011/2012 to the New York University Stern School of Business. In the 2015/16 academic year, he was Alfred Grosser Professor at the Institut d'études politiques (Sciences Po) in Paris.[3] In 2018, Schularick was elected to the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities.[4] Since 2021, in addition to his professorship at the University of Bonn, he is also Professor of Economics at Sciences Po.[5]

He is one of the recipients of the 2022 Leibniz-Prize, Germany's most prestigious research prize awarded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).[6]

Research

Schularick's research focuses on monetary macroeconomics, international economics and economic history. His work on credit cycles, asset prices, and financial stability has formed the background for the so-called macroprudential policy aimed at curbing credit boom.[7] His studies on the causes of financial crises and the transformation of the financial system are among the most internationally cited macroeconomic papers of the last decade.[8]

In 2012, he received a Schumpeter Fellowship from the Volkswagen Foundation to study the financial side of globalization, what he calls financialization.[9]

Schularick's work on China-America economic relations, the causes of populism, and returns on various asset classes has also attracted considerable interest among experts and in the media. Named articles by Schularick have appeared in The New York Times, the Financial Times, and the Süddeutsche Zeitung, among others.[10]
