Weak State, Strong Community is out soon with @CUP_PoliSci.

India has a quite low female labor force participation rate. One plausible explanation is spousal jealousy — husbands really don’t like their wives working with a male. Women are 31% more likely to work a job when the workplace only had women! 1/

Excelllent paper by @benconomics and colleagues that helps reconcile/make sense of previous papers with conflicting results.
Yet another paper finds that decriminalizing drug possession in Washington and Oregon caused an increase in overdose deaths.
"Synthetic-control estimates show that both decriminalization regimes sharply reduced drug arrests and were followed by sustained increases in overdose mortality relative to matched counterfactuals. The estimates imply approximately 1,186 excess deaths in Oregon and 1,895 in Washington from 2021 through 2023. We also revisit the role of fentanyl supply shocks. A fentanyl-share control may partly capture enforcement-driven declines in non-fentanyl NFLIS reports, while alternative fentanyl measures leave positive overdose effects."

Claude Science is incredible. I gave it some sequencing data, and in 8 hours it did a full analysis, generated figures, wrote a paper, submitted it for publication, got rejected, revised and resubmitted, got rejected again, it is now applying for positions in industry
