Women's day is a great time to recognize an important place where women are absent: the top. Only 25% of multilateral appointed a woman head even once since 1990. Our 2023 paper in @PoliticsGenderJ exposes the candidate pool as the bottleneck.

We know that women are rarely tapped to be heads of multilateral institutions, even as gender parity in the workplace is improving. The secret to gaining power? Choose your institution carefully: some appear to be "set aside" for women leaders.

Prof Solow's work on low wage workers and inequality reinforced my interest in labor policy when I first joined MIT. Once in grad school I checked myself out of a hospital early just to attend one of his lectures. Totally worth it

Prof Corden was the first person in my life who agreed that trade protection was a fascinating topic. Our discussions were the reason I jumped (maybe a little over-exhuberantly) into trade economics

[Chad P. Bown @ChadBown]

Max Corden passed away in October 2023. Corden was one of the great trade economists of all time. Here’s why.
