Florida's 6-week ban abortion ban is big deal. Appreciated the chance to talk about it--and all the things we don't yet know about how many folks with get in under the threshold, drive 11+ hours, or mail-order pills--with @ailsachang @NPR

This is important and fascinating new work from former @middecon colleague @A_Fieldhouse and co-author Karel Mertens that finds a central role for government-funded research and development in post-war US economic growth.

Very valuable overview of the many advances in understanding Russian/Soviet economic history by the wonderful (and too modest) @AmandaGregg711.
Thanks very much to Claude Diebolt and Michael Haupert for inviting me to write this piece for the 3rd Edition of the Handbook of Cliometrics. I've called it: "Cliometrics, the Russian Empire, and the Soviet Union."

This thread is a reminder of how important it is to “get things right” in the classroom, and an auspicious moment for me to sing the praises of Game Theory & Behavior, Jeff Carpenter and @AndreaRobbett ‘s forthcoming introductory textbook with MIT Press.

Our thanks to @Caitlin_K_Myers from @Middlebury, who delivered our annual Wilcox Lecture last night. Dr. Myers discussed the causal impacts of abortion access on the lives of women and their families and what to expect in a post-Roe America. It was a truly phenomenal talk!👏👏👏

A nice example of salience: relation between inflation rate and google searches for ``inflation'' for the US, from 2004 to today. From Oleg Korenok, David Munro et Jiayi Chen (2022) ideas.repec.org/p/zbw/glodps…. Suggests things are ok up to close to 4%.

If you're interested in access to abortion care, you likely have come across the work of @middecon professor @Caitlin_K_Myers. In addition to her research, she was the lead economist on an amicus brief in the #Dobbs case, detailing the economic impacts of overturning Roe.
ALT “Becoming a mother is one of the most economically important decisions a woman faces. If she chooses to become a parent, she can expect her earnings to be reduced by more than one-third, while new fathers’ earnings decline only slightly. The United States is one of the only countries in the world that does not mandate paid maternity leave, and 81 percent of workers lack formal paid leave even as they face median child-care costs of $10,400 per year for an infant. This assumes parents can even obtain reliable child care, something many struggle to do.” Caitlin Knowles Myers, The Washington Post, 2021
