Using the staggered rollout of Deliveroo & Uber Eats in France, H Allouard, G Cecere, J De Sousa, @econom.bsky.social, & I Picard show how expanding access to legal income for disadvantaged groups can reduce crime even when jobs are temporary, flexible, & low-paid. cepr.org/voxeu/column... #EconSky

Such a great new issue of @aeacswep.bsky.social CSWEP newsletter--strongly recommend all young researchers check it out! (In general, I find the CSWEP newsletter to have great advice!)

Now a great presentation by @farahzadishadi.bsky.social on marriage migration. Interesting finding: muslims choose to marry abroad not to gain from migration but finding a partner from the same ethnicity and religion. Check out her work. #workshop #migration #family #econsky

This is the saddest news I could have received. A profound loss for the entire community. You don’t need to meet someone in person to recognize their impact, as her work spoke volumes. She was a role model to many. Condolences to her family, friends and colleagues. RIP #ghazalaazmat

Looking forward to presenting my paper in this amazing workshop! See programe below 👇

📢 If you're based in Paris or nearby, don’t miss this great workshop taking place @ieseg.fr (La Defense) on June 16-17. Organized by @simori.bsky.social and @thomasbaudin.bsky.social 🗓 Registration: June 8 (free but first come first serve 😎) Link ➡️ www.ieseg.fr/en/events/re... Programme below!

Devastating news at IZA yesterday. More than 25 years of hard work, earned reputation, and valuable institutional knowledge and public good provision wiped out with a single stroke. It’s hard to find the words.

Wow. This is bigger than I thought. We should be involved in the data collection as much as we are in the data analysis. Well done @i4replication.bsky.social!

Hard times for research almost everywhere. IZA is closing as of December 31, 2025.

It's a very sad day. Just notified that @iza.org is closing its doors as of 31 December 2025. At a time when labor is under attack and technological change moves at an ever-faster pace, I can't help but think that this is a short-sighted decision. My heart goes out to those folks who work there.

📢 Call for Poster Sessions for the 4th Migration and Family Economics Workshop, hosted by IÉSEG School of Management in 📍 Paris, on June 16-17, 2025. Great opportunity for PhD students and postdocs. 📌 Deadline: April 13, 2025. #📉📈EconSky please repost

"The whole field of economics, or what used to be called political economy, was really founded by people who thought they should be telling other people what to do." This recent talk by Nobel laureate David Card at @rfberlin.bsky.social, on Immigration and Minimum Wages, is magisterial.

The folks obsessively posting about egg prices for the past few years have gone strangely quiet just as egg prices hit an all-time high.

I've decided to collect my DiD materials in a single place. psantanna.com/did-resources There, you will find - 14 lectures of my comprehensive DiD course - Shorter lectures/talks I have given on DiD - My DiD R/Stata/Python packages - Some DiD checklists - DiD materials from my friends Enjoy!

A diamond-mine for empirical economists sorting through the modern differences-in-differences literature Five years of teaching materials from frontier researcher @pedrosantanna.bsky.social, which he has very generously posted open-access in this #EconSky thread

#econsky Interesting workshop for early career scholars working on education.

#📉📈EconSky A great opportunity for young researchers to present 👇

With @jeromevalette.bsky.social & Simone Bertoli, we are thrilled to announce the Call for Papers for the 3rd edition of the Junior Workshop on the Economics of Migration on 23-24 June 2025 @CERDI, Clermont-Ferrand, France. Submit until 23 February 2025 on economig2025.sciencesconf.org

This is just an overview of the main research highlights, but there's so much more on our website: working papers, databases, the amazing Atlas of the Offshore World, etc. Thanks and congratulations to all my brilliant colleagues—and looking forward to 2025! /end

I used Twitter during the pandemic, and it helped a lot. It feels the same now. Research, not Musk's memes, is back on my feed 🥳

And also interesting to some #TeachEcon followers

Very interesting work I was pitching this paper to my students last week at the end of my class

🔔 Wow! #EconFR now has its starting pack! Thanks @yajnagovind.bsky.social go.bsky.app/RhQLT3S

Just watched this YouTube lecture by @justinwolfers.bsky.social. tl; dw: 1. Your students are using chatgpt. All of them. 2. ChatGpt is much better than you think. 3. Your university is likely giving you terrible advice. Loads of actionable stuff in here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2Bv...
