Edward F. Buffie studies macroeconomics with a focus on developing and low-income countries, examining how government spending, borrowing, and monetary policy affect economic growth and stability. His work uses economic models to explore topics such as public investment, debt sustainability, minimum wages, and how automation (robots) may reshape wages and labor markets. Much of his research connects theoretical models to policy questions relevant to poorer economies.
Publication activity has been uneven over the last decade, with active years (2018, 2020) interspersed with years showing no output, and has slowed in the most recent years.
