TÜBİTAK Career Development Program will fund İnci Gümüş’s research project entitled “Macroeconomic Effects of Alternative Tax Policies During Financial Crises”. This project will analyze the effects of tax cuts on macroeconomic variables during financial crises. These effects will be studied in the context of the 2008 global financial crisis in Turkey. The project will provide insights on how macroeconomic variables would behave in a case where the government has access to additional borrowing, which allows for tax reductions to stimulate the economy.

The European tour of the English performance of “Medea” will begin with a reception to be given by the Consul-General to Turkey in Stuttgart, Mustafa Türker.
