Some information on the session logistics:
If not stated otherwise, the discussant is the following speaker, with the first speaker being the discussant of the last paper. The last speaker of each session is the session chair. (Exception: invited sessions)
Presenters should speak for no more than 20 minutes, and discussants should limit their remarks to no more than 5 minutes. The remaining time should be reserved for audience questions and the presenter’s responses. We suggest following these guidelines also in the (less common) 3-paper sessions in a 2-hour slot, to allow participants to move between sessions. Discussants are encouraged to avoid summarizing the paper. By focusing on a few questions and comments, the discussants can help start a broader discussion with the audience.
Only registered participants can attend this conference. Further information available on the congress website https://www.iseg.ulisboa.pt/en/event/iipf/ .

Generalized Production Efficiency* 1: CY Cergy Paris Université, ThEMA; 2: Universite Paris Pantheon-Assas, France, CRED When should governments sacrifice production efficiency for redistribution? We generalize the celebrated result of Diamond and Mirrlees (1971a,b) by allowing for imperfect competition, suboptimal and nonlinear taxation. We demonstrate that production efficiency hinges on the flexibility of the tax system in compensating gains and losses from changes in factor prices. This requires the tax system to target each factor’s income. We show how to adjust tax systems or production policies for imperfect targeting and market failures, even when the tax system is not flexible enough. We then obtain new sufficient statistics formulas. Endogenous factor prices do not modify the test to identify Pareto-improving tax reforms.
