Daron Acemoglu, Simon Johnson, and James Robinson have been awarded the 2024 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences “for studies of how institutions are formed and affect prosperity.” Today’s #ChartOfTheDay recreates and extends a chart from their seminal 2005 paper, showing the economic paths of North and South Korea. The laureates present the case of the two Koreas as a natural experiment between two halves organised in radically different ways. In 1960, South Korea had a GDP per capita comparable to that of Liberia or Guatemala. Today, it is an economic powerhouse, with a per capita income more than 30 times greater than its northern neighbour. #NobelPrize Visit our Data-Hub to explore more interactive charts. buff.ly/46jFRvq

Sad to read that my favourite political podcast will end in its current guise. I will miss the mix of analysis and smut. But, as an academic, glad to hear a great appointment in the area of skills, further & higher education.

It's happened! I could not be more delighted that my lovely friend and podcast partner @Jacqui_Smith1 is back in government, as Lord minister for skills, further & higher education. Of course I am beyond bereft that this era of the @forthemanypod ends. More on that later.

Dr Laurence B. Mussio, FRHistS
@WorldSummitAI Good presentation on situating AI in context... and history is the springboard for the discussion. "Data is the new oil" is a gr8 slogan, but history shows resource metaphors can be misleading. Oil fueled industrial revolutions, but data's impact is more nuanced. @LongInitiative

My review of Adams' book on the finances of the Irish Revolution is out in the Journal of Economic History - bit.ly/3NlX13y Fascinating account of how a nascent state must construct its own credit (goodwill) at home and abroad to gain financial sovereignty.
