Despite the current challenges and prior doubts regarding the ability of the WTO and GATT to promote international trade, the evidence from our meta-analysis is that the WTO/GATT effects on trade have been positive and significant. Happy 30th anniversary and thanks, @wto!
Center for Global Policy Analysis@DrexelCGPA

🚨🚨 In a recent meta-analysis study based on 2,547 estimates from 71 papers, Campos, Larch, Timini, Vidal, and @YotovG, show that the effects of GATT/WTO on trade are positive and statistically significant, but heterogeneous.👇 ideas.repec.org/p/drx/wpaper/2…

Melissa Dell's "Deep Learning for Economists" is out in JEL. Very nice recap of the lit, with companion site here: econdl.github.io. As with @akorinek's GenAI "living JEL" with bimonthly updates, this is a great example of journal publishing in the modern era. 1/2

📙 My paper on the #quality impacts of #mergers is out in #EconomicsLetters, a journal with a tradition of publishing articles on price & non-price effects of mergers. 🔎 It explores the parties' incentives to reduce quality in markets where #competition is primarily on quality.

The only intervention that makes people want to raise taxes is being told about "the lavish lifestyles of billionaires."

Ireland and Netherlands are major EU tax havens. This paper shows that they are among the most important tax havens for US multinational corporations, allowing them to shift profits. Interesting paper

This new Stata command by Rodolfo Campos, Iliana Reggio, and Jacopo Timini for solving GE trade models (which builds on my earlier ge_gravity command) is a really nice step in what I think is a needed direction! rolf-campos.github.io/project/ge_gra…

@QJEHarvard x.com/andreamatranga… Here is a long thread explaining the paper, including some extras that were left on the cutting room floor in the interest of brevity.

So this is the popular conception of hunter gatherers. Running around in loincloths hunting wooly Mammooths. Fine, though a lot of hunting was actually small game trapping, and actually gathering of plants was a bigger source of calories (though proteins came mostly from hunts).

Is economics self-correcting? Our paper on replications & comments in the AER is now out in Economic Inquiry (in a special issue on replication @I4Replication). There is some interesting material, including a survey of all living former AER editors. 1/n onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
