Very happy that our paper with Q. Ashraf, Oded Galor, B. Gershman and Erik Hornung is forthcoming at The Review of Economic Studies. We propose the complementarity between physical capital and effective labor as a mechanism to explain the decline of coercive labor institutions.

Very happy to share that our paper with Mariacristina De Nardi and Giulio Fella on rich wage dynamics and their impact on (benefit) policy evaluation is now accepted at The Review of Economic Studies 👇
