@kopalo again showing why his substack is so valuable. This post definitely aligns with my (very) anecdotal impression from Uganda, Namibia, etc. https://t.co/8KjYCtU4pT

@jondr44 @Josh_Merfeld Perfect, this looks great!

[Will Gochberg @WillGochberg]

@lauren_honig @CUP_PoliSci @RBlaifeder Can't wait to read this!

[Lauren Honig @lauren_honig]

Returned from Montreal and this beautiful box of books had arrived from @CUP_PoliSci @RBlaifeder. So thrilled to share it. Time for a short 🧵

[Will Gochberg @WillGochberg]

🚨 New article (w/ coauthor Victor Menaldo) available at Resources Policy! "To rent or not to rent? Mechanics, causes and consequences of Ricardian and Quasi-rents in the oil industry" Quick thread below https://t.co/Vkm9PnZnze

New paper & a 🧵
