Brilliant idea, explained simply. Will definitely read the paper and think about how to use it in my work.

I am on the job market, which seems like a great opportunity for my first post on here! My job market paper is about failures of contingent thinking -- the act of reasoning about hypothetical events. 1/

Today's edition of "ππ papers you should know" is Amanda Friedenberg's
@econometric.bsky.social
paper, "Bargaining Under Strategic Uncertainty: The Role of Second-Order Optimism". It's a wonderful example of a paper that delivers new insights from studying an old game.

I wrote an intro to the literature on simple mechanisms. Out now in the JEP. Itβs a short (14-page) plain-language summary, designed to get students to the research frontier. ππ

Here's Bryan Caplan writing about math in economics. Seems very wrong to me. I wonder what the quickest refutation is that would make sense to most practicing economists.

Paper worth reading: "The Optimality of Majority Rule" by Nina Bobkova. It offers a new perspective on why simple majority-rule may be best: it not only aggregates information but it also motivates voters to learn about what really matters. Link:

there's a view that this place is unbearably lefty and less valuable/less promising because of that. i don't think it's true but it WOULD be great for econsky to form a norm of not piling on when people say something against the prevailing orthodoxy
