The outbreak of the COVID-19 surprised everyone all around the world, changed the way we live and is still changing. In the first part, an economic and financial outlook is provided for the EU/EA and US to realize the macroeconomics and macro-financial pre-conditions of the crisis. In a second part, this research takes roots from the Great Financial Crisis and economic policies implemented during this financial crisis. The objective is to question and focus on the lessons learnt from past crises, especially the Great Recession to understand present economic policies. The third part describes how the Pandemic hurt in an unprecedented way the economic and financial markets. A fourth and more analytical part focuses on describing the monetary and fiscal policies implemented by the European and the American authorities to recover from this crisis and protect their citizens. In a comparative approach fashioned by the New Keynesian framework, the paper provides insights on how policies are conceived and divergent they are regarding the EU/EA and the US. This research aims to contribute to the economic debate on policies that should be implemented during a crisis such as a pandemic.</p> Economics Pandemic Comparing US and EU Economic responses Economic and financial markets Economic policies Crisis Dewey 330 Dewey 330.9 Master in Political Economy of Capitalism 193 Institut d'histoire économique Paul Bairoch TE 123 Département d'histoire, économie et société T5 false 0e5936ee-b941-4a60-b05a-48a529159641 Master thesis Public Guyot_Thesis.pdf 3513641 application/pdf openAccess Faculté des sciences de la société / Institut d'histoire économique Paul Bairoch Faculté des sciences de la société / Département d'histoire, économie et société
