New paper with @paolo_agnolin and Italo Colantone: in a way, I wish we didn’t have to write it --it's just another primer on post-treatment bias. But it’s a fun paper...We show how one can break some of Colantone and Stanig's earlier results (i.e., ours!) journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

unibocconi.it/en/horizon-eur… Come work with me! Bocconi is a potential host of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions postdoctoral fellowships, and I am one of the available supervisors, considering projects related in general to the politics of technological change.

In 2021, @PStanig and I wrote a critical book on lockdowns. In a follow-up paper (with @Curini) we study how governments copied each other and why few rolled measures back: restrictions remained also for political, not only health reasons journals.sagepub.com/eprint/…

Quick reminder that, yes, “PhD admission email season” is indeed here but you should not share emails on here that potential students send to you in good faith and in confidence. Doesn’t matter if they have a typo, or are annoying or anything else. Just not cool.

We also argue --quite forcefully-- that simpler models (without bad controls) may offer more relevant policy insights than complex models that aim at testing many different stories at once, but can ultimately mislead on each one of them.

Does mediation analysis help in this setting, you might ask? Maybe. But using principal stratification following Forastiere et al., we clarify what the ignorability assumptions for causal mediation imply: these are not just technical assumptions, they are loaded with substance.
