We analysed thousands of essays written by children in 1969 to study what determines how strongly girls conform with gender norms, and what the consequences are for later-life outcomes. Find out more below!
Written jointly with the amazing @cormacodea, @sree_ayyar & Eric French.
A new study by @uta_bolt investigates the direct link between conformity to gender norms and the impact on their lifetime earnings, crucial in promoting gender equality and creating a more equitable society. ➡️ brnw.ch/21wL6ox

One of the most striking charts from our paper imo is this one:
The vast majority of Economics PhDs at top-ranked programs have a parent with a *graduate* degree - particularly among the American students.
That is, we are drawing from an extremely narrow socioeconomic pool.

The 2023 Handbook of @IMFNews Facilities for Low-Income Countries is out, with everything you need to know about Fund programs in LICs (incl. on lending and debt restructuring). Happy to have made a small contribution to a humongous effort by many people.

It would be a shame (and look terrible for Europe) if the European commission proposal on fiscal rules died because of lack of consensus. In shorturl.at/dmszV Jeromin Zettelmeyer and I try to find a common ground between the German "non paper" and the original proposal.

🆕paper: as Brussels and Berlin battle over #fiscalrules, there is a risk that the #EU repeats past mistakes. Together with @jasperhvandijk and @VJZiesemer we propose stronger and more politically savvy enforcement mechanisms to solve the trade-offs. cer.eu/publications/archive/…

Independent fiscal watchdogs such as the UK's @OBR_UK can play a role in evaluating policy and providing technical analysis, even if they cannot be enforcers. Their quality varies widely across Europe. The EU should provide a funding base to help them across the continent.

Excellent read stepping back and trying to make sense of the current economic situation.
For weeks now, I've been thinking about what to make of the U.S. economy right now. The job market is good -- historically good. Inflation is cooling. So why does it feel like another shoe is about to drop?
In the @nytimes today, I try to make sense of it

But since crisis stress tests have proven...not all that stressful.
Here are scenarios look last few years. All ~identical, Great Recession style downturn. Interest rate risk never stressed.
Banks have been taught to the test, and they know how to ace it (and hide problems)

The IMF and the World Bank actually did a good job of maintaining the net flow of funds to poorer countries during the pandemic -- there wasn't a financial crunch in 2020 or 2021 as a result.

Remarquable synthèse des enjeux économiques et politiques du rôle croissant des banques centrales dans la politique économique. Et cette belle citation d’Adam Smith : oui, les banques centrales sont de « grandes machines de gouvernement » …et doivent être discutées comme telles.
En librairie le 4 novembre. Comment repenser le rôle économique et le cadre démocratique des banques centrales ? Comment réguler les cryptomonnaies, créer une monnaie digitale publique ? Etc. #inflation #ecologie #dettepublique #monnaiedigitale
