🚨New working paper 🚨 How did migration reshape Brazil’s religious landscape? Raphael Corbi, Fabio Miessi, and I have a new paper showing that internal migration drove a major religious shift by transforming local religious markets instead of converting migrants or spreading beliefs. 👇

Our own @hannahritchie.bsky.social did a video last year with Big Think called “What the news won't tell you about climate change” — and it just won gold at the 2025 Telly Awards as the best non-broadcast video on sustainability!

I'm thrilled to have my first paper accepted for publication in the Journal of Development Economics. It has been a long journey, beginning even before starting grad school. Let me give you an overview of this paper. (1/n)

Hello, #econsky! I have a question for you: What’s your preferred way to post working papers and track citations? Are there drawbacks to using repositories like SSRN or arXiv?

Great resource for applied economists

I'm thrilled to receive the 2024 Haralambos Simeonides Best Dissertation Award from ANPEC. Thanks to my supervisor, Raphael Corbi, and my co-author, Renata Narita, for all the support over these years.

Can anyone recommend a recent working paper or job market paper on discrimination in the judicial system in a country in Latin America or the Caribbean? (Self promotion welcome!)

This paper looks really cool!

Thrilled to share that my paper “Spatial Diffusion of Local Economic Shocks in Social Networks: Evidence from the US Fracking Boom” was accepted at JOLE earlier this year. Full article here👉 doi.org/10.1086/732300. A short 🧵 below - my first on 🦋! @jlaborecon.bsky.social @sofi.su.se #econsky 1/7

Testing the power of Bluesky: I'll be teaching a new "Introduction to Environmental Economics" class to 1st year master students in economics and statistics. Any good resources / syllabi / textbook / ideas you would have and be willing to share ? Either here or at [email protected] Thanks!!!

If you want to download the 1990-2023 county-level Census Building Permits data... (I'll probably have a blog post about this at some point) h/t @kjhealy.co for the `rvest` code

Really cool 👇🏻

Great initative! Do you know junior economists from LMICs? Please encourage them to apply - chances of being matched seem great and I'm sure the feedback will be useful. Requirement: "Mentees should be pre-PhD or in a postdoc in a LMIC, with a finished paper ready to share over the next month."

The thrill of starting a new project...

Enjoyed this blog post from Nicholas Carlini on how he uses AI to help with coding - nicholas.carlini.com/writing/2024...

#EconSky Starter Pack Update: Labor and Education Economists now includes 67 people since Bluesky now allows >50 profiles. Please let me know about other profiles I have not yet discovered ☝️ go.bsky.app/JChuCgc

I have an #econsky / #polisky question: Has anyone implemented a partial identification approach to consider the relative vote preference for candidates, considering "no votes"? E.g. A county votes 55% Trump, 45% harris, turnout is 60%. Bounds on Trump preference is [33% Trump, 73% Trump]. 1/

Every time I look at some old code, I discover that my past self is way smarter than my current self...

I'd love to amplify job market papers and candidates! Tag me and I'll repost! #econsky 📈📉

Just to emphasize again the key point from this great JMP: there has been a massive shift in political realignment such that less educated voters sort into the Republican Party due to cultural messaging, while economic policy only modestly keeps them in the Democratic Party

🚨📜I am excited to share my Job Market Paper, where I study the effects of youth clubs on education and crime. The paper highlights the broader value of after-school activities and the potential benefits of public provision. 1/10

The more I dive into this paper, the more I like it. It has an exciting story, incredible work in constructing the dataset, and a solid empirical strategy. Very well done!

I’ve made a Women in Econ starter pack (s/o @vinisingh.bsky.social for sparking the idea!). Share, follow, and comment below if you’d like to be added! go.bsky.app/LqBPkQZ

Hey #EconSky, does anybody have slides about international trade, tariffs, and/or immigration they'd be willing to share? I'm interested in recent data and trends, not theory. Looking for inspiration! Thanks!

I started a starter pack of economists working on gender. It's sparsely populated, so please point out people I've missed. go.bsky.app/P6kvUEe

No responses unfortunately, so let me ask this the other way around - is there any interest in a longer thread on some of the key points and a few cool papers with applications? #econsky

This is really awesome!

This is the second @whatworksgrowth.bsky.social evaluation resources we've published this week talking about ways to design local growth policies to make them more amenable to robust impact evaluation (a companion piece to our resource on (not) evaluating the overall impacts of devolution).

Spatial JMCs: Each year, I compile a list of spatial-economics job-market papers. To make sure you're on my list (& save me some work), please reply with your info in the following format: Firstname Surname (School) - JMP title - homepageURL [Trade JMCs: reply to other post]

Highly recommended

With #rstats re-gathering I’m reposting some of my past blog posts, including my most popular one: "Marginalia" Have you wondered what marginal and conditional effects are? Have you been confused how "marginal" can mean both an integral *and* a slope? Read on for the magic of {marginaleffects}!
