My annual tradition continues -- my 10 favorite economics papers published in 2021, ordered alphabetically [Meant to do this yesterday, but I had a paper rejected on New Year's Day -- Happy New Year! -- so I decided to deal with that instead]

Just under the wire again, but I continue my annual tradition -- my 10 favorite economics papers published in 2020, ordered alphabetically [Was pretty tough this year; might have to do an "honorable mention" list in January...]

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Check out Joe Battles on the econ job market. He's an awesome health economist, studying one of the highest-touch points in the healthcare space: pharmacies.
UChicago Economics@UChi_Economics

Pharmacy exits cause temp. declines in medication use but long-run increases. Closure-induced reallocations to higher-dispensing pharmacies combined with meaningful impacts of pharmacies drive the increases. Read more about @econbattles: economics.uchicago.edu/directory/jose… #EconJobMarket

@paulnovosad I usually recommend the Journal of Applied Econometrics, since it publishes both "narrow" and "wide" replications (see here: #replication" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page/journal/1…)

I have several students doing interesting replications of important development papers. I feel like it's useful knowledge for the world to know whether these things survived out-of-author-group testing.

Is there a venue for "I replicated this AEJ paper using a different dataset, it holds up" Or "it kinda holds up about as much as you would expect." Or "Data extended 20 yrs, does/doesn't hold." Will they take it as a comment, or does a comment have to claim to overturn?

Exactly as @ProfNoto @C_Garthwaite @NicoleOzm and Jordan Keener drew it up in their paper on NCAA athletes! "As part of the restructuring of Gundy's contract, his ... salary will be reduced to be redistributed as part of revenue sharing with players" espn.com/college-footba…

This is probably a dumb idea that could backfire in all sorts of ways depending on the details. I hope Harris gets some advisors who are more serious economists who can help steer her towards less bad ideas among the space of politically popular ones.

It's well known that lower income people tend to suffer much worse health. Is poverty at the heart of this disparity, and, if so, could a large cash transfer help close this gap? We examine an RCT that provided 1000 low income participants $1000/month for 3 years. We find…

Over the last decade, cities, states and even @iamjohnoliver have embraced a popular health care charity: forgiving people’s medical debts for pennies on the dollar. It’s been seen as a quick, cheap way to help some of the 100 million people in the U.S. stuck with medical bills.
