@orengazal @haaretzcom Really cool (and thought provoking)

We hope the article helps people realize that US violence may in part be a legacy of high-violence, weak-government regions like the Wild West, the Deep South, and the Appalachian Highlands. 11/

New paper in PNAS: Your homicide risk follows you around the country. If you’re born in the historically violent Wild West, Appalachian Highlands, or Deep South, a higher risk of violent death trails you wherever you go. 🧵1/13

[The Review of Economic Studies @RevEconStudies]

State and gang rule are sometimes complements in security provision and dispute solving. In Medellín, Colombia, gangs exogenously closer to state presence in 1987 developed more governance over time, suggesting new ways to counter criminal governance.

Many find the RCT results "disappointing."The participant stories (linked) might suggest otherwise. Channeling Sen, development isn't just about income or jobs, but freedom to make choices, even if they don't align w/ policymakers' goals.

@lced_Teas @YouGovAmerica Cool stuff. Any chance you got data on Jews and Zionism?

A county's per capita traffic fines revenue is 30% lower in sheriff election than nonelection years. The magnitude of the political cycle intensifies when an incumbent sheriff runs for reelection or an election is competitive.

6 Princeton faculty propose to “refrain from any form of academic or cultural association with Israeli institutions and businesses.”

No talks at Israeli unis? No collabs w Israeli scholars? That’s not a protest of a government’s policy. It’s a call to ostracize a people.

No.

I find this letter by Jewish students at Columbia to clearly describe a lot of my experience as a Jewish and Israeli student at Princeton for the past months. I urge members of the Princeton community to read it, even if only to better understand another aspect of the protests

For the Global City Crime Benchmarking project, a team of multi-lingual colleagues and I compared crime in 20 of the largest cities in the developed world. I’ll do a thread next week on the results.

We need this to be an ongoing, routine standard practice, not a one-off.
Honestly, this is closer to what peer review should actually be like.

[I4R @I4Replication]

Our first meta paper is out!! This paper combines our first 110 completed reproductions/replications. This is joint work with 350+ amazing coauthors.
We summarize our findings below.

This is a case for more *code review*
Peer review is broken. We're focusing on the wrong things.

Banning the purchase of sex 🚨DOES NOT🚨increase cases of reported rape.

A re-analysis of Ciacci (2024) shows that the paper's headline result comes from an erroneous use of Stata's regression command.
