@arabianpike lilia cosman (a random US level 10 who wasn't previously on the elite track, but moved to romania last year to rep them) won the AA out of nowhere at a finland selection camp today with a 52.733 which would have placed 9th at US classics 😭 #randomista #girl
'This is the rather sordid politics of evidence-based policy. We compromise our mission, our values, and .. all of this… for a method'? #EconTwitter

The last line of the abstract takes this paper out of development economics discipline: "These results suggest that strict enforcement through disconnections increases payment and the financial position of the utility without incurring political costs". #randomista https://t.co/5eFMKDVEbw
Randomista Harvest Redux
It's a year ago since my 《😐》research thread ever.
It's been more rollercoaster than B-movie since then, & being called #Randomista is the least of our worries...
1/2.
Thread <RANDOMISTA HARVEST>
It’s been a few weeks since we were last called the R-word but it set us thinking about a summer holiday thread.
Plse forgive the mix of B-movie pulp & serious research. But if it helps to retire <Randomista> it was worth it🤨

A paraître dans @CODESRIA Bulletin No 1 2020, "Randomised Trails as Dead-end for African Development" par Seán M. Muller @peripheralecon. Il montre que le projet #randomista est imparfait "selon ses propres termes" et que son approche "a fait et continue de faire beaucoup de mal"
Forthcoming in @CODESRIA Bulletin No 1 2020, a piece titled "Randomised Trails as Dead-end for African Development" by Sean M. Muller @peripheralecon. It shows that #randomista project is flawed "on it's own terms" & its approach "has done, and continues to do, significant harm."
Controversial? An absolute must-read for those interested in #gender dynamics, #RCTs, and the #randomista debate. https://t.co/1NlUvAcK40 @N_Kabeer @GAGE_programme @ALIGN_platform @DFID_Gender
Can #RCTs provide useful guidance for transforming our government school system?
Our project manager @mannu_rakesh and advisory board member @MartinHaus93 weigh in on the debate.

“We cannot randomize our way out of #poverty.” Nice thread. Insights on the #NobelEconomicsPrize by a #randomista fan on the power imbalance between western and African researchers, and much more. #RCT #EstherDuflo #michaelkremer #AbhijitBanerjee @africasacountry
I read this blog post on the 2019 Econ nobel prize &I have a some thoughts.I shld start with revealing my background and potential sources of bias.1)One of the 3(Kremer) has advised&supported me for almost a decade, in grad school &beyond.I could write a whole thread on that 1/n
This almost fulfills my lifelong dream, any time someone calls RCTs the “gold standard” of research, that a true-blue #randomista will pop up to say “But where’s your coubterfactual?!”
5-One thing I can't help wondering though: what is the counterfactual to the RCT revolution?? Would we be stuck in methods of the 1990s (unlikely) or what other path would devpt economics be on if all the time,talent & resources currently devoted to RCTs had gone elsewhere?!10/n
@africasacountry @gchelwa @peripheralecon @ESRFTZ More blck & brwn peeps nd 2 run our own RCTs, w/ spprt frm & in collabo w/ others elsewhere. I appreciate the support frm @CEGA_UC @poverty_action @tedmiguel @Hewlett_Found & mny othrs. Am hopeful tht th #randomista mvmnt is continuing 2 b incrsngly inclusive & diverse. 6/6.

Kremer, Banerjee and Duflo are at the vanguard of the #randomista movement, which applies the medical method of randomized controlled trials to #social interventions such as improving #education. #NobelPrize #Economics #RCT https://t.co/XyDAwlhFWn
Northwestern had their first Development Skit Party! #Randomista Rap by @vinnyarmentano was a clear highlight 😊
Chuffed to have my new book 'Randomistas' dubbed "even-tempered, scientific & accessible" in @ScienceMagazine by #Randomista extraordinare John List https://t.co/vy33EJJ5aH @yalepress @YaleBooks @BlackIncBooks @SciMagBooks @UChicago
Data science, experimental platforms, machine learning and plenty of laughs with self-confessed #randomista @mike_t_sanders @B_I_Tweets
