Eric Maskin, a professor at Harvard and Nobel Prize in Economics 2007, along with Leonid Hurwicz and Roger B. Myerson, participated in a symposium with professors and researchers from the economic and business field of the Universitat Jaume I, organised by the Faculty of Law and Economic Sciences with the Rey Jaume I Awards Foundation.

In the colloquium, Maskin has reflected on some issues related to politics in the United States such as the electoral system, Trump's decision not to support Paris Agreement to address climate change or how his policy will affect to universities and research.
