Three economic history Nobel Prizes in a row! Go economic history! Congratulations Joel!
(Perhaps more departments should reconsider letting economic history die???)
I'm thrilled about all of the new opportunities this role will bring and deeply grateful to my amazing colleagues and students at Grinnell for all of their support the past three years!
I'm excited to share that the next stage of my career will be back in Oxford! In January, I'll begin as Associate Professor of Economic and Social History, where I'll also be an Associate Member of the Department of Economics and a Fellow of All Souls.
