Check out my new article with @EconSargent ! We use a gravity model to show that length and era of colonial occupation impact future migration rates from Africa to Europe in nonlinear ways. A tiny step forward in unpacking the economic effects of a complicated colonial history.

Hey #EconTwitter, who's got a great paper that does duration/survival analysis I should read? Unemployment duration is the classic example. Bonus points if you look at transitions between multiple states. Doesn't have to be labor econ. TIA!

#EconTwitter I'm aware there is a well documented labor market "motherhood penalty" (women with kids do worse than men with kids & women w/o kids), is there evidence for/against a "marriage penalty" (how do married women do vs. married men & single women)?
