@thisisgiacomo Great advice!

Journals publishing replications is fantastic. Even better when one's paper is actually replicable! Replication of “A Model of Secular Stagnation” by Eggertsson et al. (2019) - Economic Inquiry - Wiley Online Library https://t.co/RYEC5PW1bU

[WEAI Economic Inquiry @InquiryWEAI]

Interested in replicating results? @crescentiniale1 and Federico Giri provides a Dynare replication of Eggertsson et al. (2019)! Their exercise helps identify minor mistakes in equations used in the original code and paper. https://t.co/0JqdIzGWwP @WileyEconomics #EconTwitter

Aim: lowering the entry barriers. A new replication paper of a large OLG model featuring Secular Stagnation and multiple OBCs is now available on EI. Joint work with Federico Giri. 🎃

In the 1970s, PhD programs in economics in the US abandoned the requirement that students take a course in the history of economic thought. Steve Medema’s take in 2009 on the costs to the profession of that decision:

@VitoLops Acquisti sui bond come non accadeva da marzo 2020, che dato utilizzi per questo?

@monacelt Lo studio è una review del mercato del lavoro statunitense, i risultati possono essere traslati ad esempio a quello italiano?

[Andrea Roventini @AndreaRoventini]

Perché invece non offrire salari più elevati e migliori condizioni di lavoro a chi già lavora in Italia? Vogliono la concorrenza nel mercato del lavoro solo sulle spalle dei lavoratori!

[Garic Moran @GaricMoran]

1000 PHD's in economics went to Jackson Hole to figure out how to fix the world economy; yet, not one pointed out the historical fact that the USA grew twice as fast under a Gold standard when 0 PHD's in economics set interest rates and instead free market capitalism set rates!

Just to summing-up. Economists should read it, and not only them. https://t.co/EgFsdbzaBH

The future belongs to generalists. If you miss links between different subjects and tasks, you become just an officer. Ad maiora!

Da Ministro proposi un intervento netto: concorso con commissione nazionale, chiamate dirette sottoposte a rigida valutazione ex post e ruolo unico, ma la maggioranza era contraria. Urge approvare PDL ricercatori, con scelte chiare e discontinuità https://t.co/NgSILVUXM2

L’economia è una disciplina che dovrebbe aspirare a migliorare le condizioni dell’uomo. Nel dibattito pubblico di un economista accademico, si leggono banalità e insulse proposte reazionarie: perchè? rhttps://www.roars.it/online/il-mercato-rende-liberi/ via @ROARS

Tutti a parlare del nuovo regime di politica monetaria della Fed.
Molta confusione. 🤔

Un thread per capire meglio.👇
