Three centuries ago China tweaked a single rule in its imperial exams—and gave us a natural experiment on affirmative action that still echoes today. 🧵👇

@Winter62675779 Thanks Ming! Congrats to your PoP paper!

After monthssss of data collection/cleaning, we finally did it! We examined China's "at least one woman" quota for prefectural appointment and found that while it improves women's representation at first, it has become a glass ceiling in the long run..https://t.co/VTfyEsdtif

Thrilled to announce “From Click to Boom: The Political Economy of E-Commerce in China” is released! (amazon: https://t.co/B6QKFNE2yM or 30%off with code P327 at https://t.co/IpLcGkpob8 via @PrincetonUPress)

A decade in the making, my book presents how the world’s largest e-commerce market unveils a digital path to development—and what it means for China’s growth trajectory and institutional evolution worldwide.

Research built on extensive fieldwork across 6 provinces, hundreds of interviews, two original surveys, 27 million data of proprietary transactions, and a rare, large-scale field experiment spanning 3 Chinese provinces…

Looks like a fabulous book-congratulations Jack! Especially relevant now that the PRC has just this month ended international adoptions of Chinese children (except by blood relatives and step parents).

The legacy of emperors is a fascinating topic. In this article we seek to explore the long-term impact of a policy by the first emperor of the Ming dynasty, which transformed quarter of country's cities directly into military fortresses.

Thanks to JHPE's editor and reviewers.

Was doing a digital fasting in the last few months and totally missed this! Thanks @PoliticsGenderJ and for those who are interested in whether gender-based differences in policy preference are allowed by single-party regimes, please contact me for free copies.
