When jobs are scarce, both men and women prefer that men work—but exposure to just six weeks of women working is enough to shift both partners' support for women's labor supply, from Yueh-ya Hsu, Reshmaan N. Hussam, Erin M. Kelley, and Gregory Lane nber.org/papers/w34969

The Economic Misfit
The Economic Misfit@EconomicMisfit·
Elinor Ostrom Changed How Economists Think About the World In 2009, Elinor Ostrom became the first woman to win the Nobel Prize in Economics. For decades, economists believed that shared resources such as forests, fisheries, and grazing lands would inevitably be overused and destroyed. However, Ostrom proved otherwise. Through field research in communities around the world, she showed that people can successfully manage shared resources themselves by creating local rules, trust, and institutions. Her work transformed how we understand cooperation, governance, and the management of the commons, shaping research in economics, environmental policy, and political science. This week, we are highlighting the work of women and their contributions to the field of economics Google Scholar Link: scholar.google.com/citations?user… #WomenInEconomics #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInResearch #EconomicMisfit

If AI replaces most of us, how can such an imbalanced system survive? There is much to learn on this question from the past - with the rise of extreme inequality. I discuss in this @IMFNews magazine how extreme inequality led to a dependence on private and public debts

Really saddened at the abduction of @Hamzakk , Phd scholar at @UofT who was conducting fieldwork in Lahore. Hamza is a promising young scholar who has an immense potential to contribute. Scholars are a nation's future; they must be allowed the room to challenge and critique
Umair Javed@umairjav

Hamza and I sparred online a few times. When I met him in person, he was exceedingly polite, curious, and intellectually motivated. Nothing about him suggests he poses a risk to anyone (not even to the most fragile of egos). He should be released immediately.

Thrilled to see this at @ecmaEditors w/@clem_imbert! Can developing cities create enough good jobs to accommodate climate migrants? Spoiler: Yes! We show that, over a decade, drought-induced immigration ⬇️ informality and ⬆️ the number of formal firms and jobs in Brazil.🧵👇

Feminist anger against #WorldHijabDay, with references to Iran or Afghanistan, is misplaced. The trouble in those dictatorships is not hijab, but state coercion to wear it. Just like secularist coercion that banned hijab in other contexts. The trouble is coercion, not religion.
NYC Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs@NYCImmigrants

February 1st is #WorldHijabDay! Today, we celebrate the faith, identity, & pride of Muslim women & girls around the word who choose to wear the hijab, a powerful symbol of devotion & celebration of Muslim heritage.

Wow -- love to see Basant returning to Lahore after decades (hopefully with proper precautions) -- so many childhood memories. I wish I could be there...when will these visa issues resolve? Diplomatic passports for those in academia, please 😅

“Punjab will enjoy a long weekend with Kashmir Day on February 5, a provincial Basant holiday on the 6th, followed by Saturday and Sunday. We hope people across Punjab take this time to relax, recharge, and make the most of the break,” CM Maryam said. dawn.com/news/1970425/p…

Class is often overlooked as a driver of observed career and wealth disparities. This paper is a pretty incredible study into the role of class in the career progression of academia. Class has a substantial impact at nearly every stage of the academic pipeline. Important work. On a personal note, this tracks with my own experience as a first-gen student. In grad school, I was shocked at the number of peers who had academic parents. They arrived on the first day knowing about the journal publishing system, the importance of conferences for networking, etc.

📢now forthcoming in ECMA! The Class Gap in Career Progression: Evidence from US Academia Class is rarely a focus of research or DEI in elite US occupations. Evidence suggests it should be: we find a large class gap in at least one occupation - tenure-track academia...🧵
