14:07 - 19.10.13
Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan has called for government efforts to
raise an active interest in scientific research in the sphere of
economy.
Speaking at the Armenian Economic Association's annual conference at
the Yerevan State University, the premier noted that the event
provokes an increasing interest by every year, attracting more and
more participants. The head of the Armenian cabinet said that
conferences of the kind have to contribute to the development of
economic thought, spurring an interest in research in the young
generation.
`We are obliged to create a motivating atmosphere at the Yerevan State
University to enable people to do research. We have to closely follow
those research activities and use the ideas proposed by the Armenian
Economic Union to the best of our abilities,' he said.
The premier noted that the global economic recession added to the
existing economic problems across the globe, at the same time making
the world a more interesting place,
`If we follow the Nobel Prizes in economics, we'll see the actual
topics economists are normally interested in. It is obvious that the
number of regularities we learned from economy are not very often
reflected. They come to be replaced by other regularities,
simultaneously making economists closely cooperate with specialist of
other sectors, such as sociology and psychology. All that makes us
broaden the frameworks of the studies,' he added.
The three-day conference was attended by Minister of Finance Vache
Gabrielyan, Minister of Economy Vahram Avanesyann, prominent
economists and students.
Taron Acemoglu, the Turkish-Armenian economist recognized
internationally as one of the 10 most cited specialists in the sector
has also delivered a speech at the event.
