🔨How do workers build human capital on the job?

We show that internal learning (from coworkers) dominates early in the career, while external training (from outside the firm) takes over mid-career.

This shapes lifecycle wage+ productivity gains, and the impacts of remote work

New paper alert 🚨!

Low-income countries differ not only in what they produce, but how they produce: fewer large firms, far more self-employment.

What drives these gaps in firm organization? And is this distinct from standard structural transformation?

A 🧵 w/ some results 1/

[Munseob Lee @MunseobLee]

Proud @UCSDEcon student Paula Donaldson @paudonaldson discovered something huge: We have been measuring government spending effects wrong for years. When using state comparisons to estimate fiscal policy, we assumed interest rates affect all states equally. But they don't🧵

[Xiao Ma @xiaomaucsd]

@MunseobLee @StephanHaggard @GPS_UCSD Big congratulations!

[Daniel Yi Xu @DanielYiXu]

My new paper with Aaron Flaaen, Ali Hortacsu, @FelixTintelnot, and Nicolas Urdaneta on tariff passthrough along the supply chain.

[Daniel Yi Xu @DanielYiXu]

Our new paper on industrial policy in the renewal energy sector — a comparison between the U.S., EU, and China and an inquiry for potential green policy coordination.

[Daniel Yi Xu @DanielYiXu]

VoxDev has a great summary of our new paper. The lesson is also relevant for the design of domestic offset market for China’s national ETS.

[Jesús Fernández-Villaverde @JesusFerna7026]

A beta version of my slide deck for my upcoming lecture on Geoeconomics at Oxford this Friday is now online:

https://t.co/tOk7nC1IC5

I’m looking for feedback: What else should I include? Are there any important citations I might have missed?

Please note: I don’t have room for more than 50 text slides, and I want to highlight how machine learning can be a powerful tool in this field, so I need to be selective.

Still, any suggestions are most welcome, especially as I’m considering turning this into a longer course.

@chris_d_clayton, @m_maggiori, @JSchreger, @lugaricano, @CathrinMohr, @Ch_Trebesch, @VGB32058943: you might find this of some interest.
