The Decline in Transformative Science

This trend has been partly reflected in the transition towards “nano economics” -- the thorough investigation of narrow research questions whose results are self-evident at the outset or inconsequential.

Are you looking for free publicly available datasets?

@AnthonyLeeZhang has this great repository of rich datasets that would greatly aid in your research journey

tanti colleghi in università mi chiedono dove abbia fatto il liceo: che io abbia un PhD in economia con un passato da perito elettronico (e non da liceale) e che questo non sia neanche pensabile dall'accademico medio italiano parla molto di #merito

Thank you for a fantastic workshop at an impressive venue @tim_ruberg @JasminVietz @almostcertainly @YanaRadeva1 @jackbrusco90 @AndTulli @GiuseppeCappe

I dont think @nickchk gets enough credit for his service to the community in providing coding examples for common, yet advanced tasks IN THREE DIFFERENT LANGUAGES: https://t.co/HzEFXAdBPk

-LASSO and Machine Learning
-Balance Tables
-Geo stuff like heat maps

And much more. ❤️

We've all seen these maps on the lasting impact of the East/West divide in German society.

But you would've been able to spot that divide war before the Iron Curtain!

We document that middle class jobs are disappearing faster in large cities and we find faster skill-biased technical change + demand spillovers is the main driver

Algorithmic collusion, cartel price markups, transfers in fiscal federalism, identity in environmental valuation, immigrant-native wage gap, bioeconomy.. stay tuned on what @UniHohenheim #Econ #PhDs are working on! Great seminar with @GiuseppeCappe @nadjadwenger & others.

Almost three out of four Germans (71%) mistakenly believe that Italy received much more or very much more money from the EU budget than it payed in.

In fact, Italy was a net contributor to the EU budget for decades. #CAIN

Well, that was unexpected 😀

The 2015 introduction of the minimum wage in 🇩🇪

-raised wages
-had negligible employment effects
-lowered East/West wage differences
-reduced wage inequality

New paper in Journal of Labor Economics won‘t make min wage haters happy.

3 economist types

Fixers solve problems
Bean counters count
Philosophers play with ideas but don't focus on solving problems

But I'm interested in playing with ideas that solve problems and suspicious of ideas that don't

Important to remember that the wage share (the part of national income going to wages) has fallen markedly across the €zone over the last decades. Lots of room for recovery via stronger wage growth/lower profit margins.

#EconTwitter I am putting together a list of open-sourced macro models (DSGE, etc) that are used in practice by central banks and ministries of finance. This should be helpful to economists, #PhD students, and RAs. You can find the list here: https://t.co/9f4IKTFukC
