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!

Have you replaced your dynamic TWFE event-study with an event-study from one of the recent DiD methods for staggered timing?

If so, you may be interested in this short note on interpreting event-studies from these new methods. A short 🧵

Populism and Globalization has been my favorite course to teach. The recent literature on populism is very impressive both theoretically and methodologically. And topic is so central inside and outside academia. Very happy for this award! Many thanks to the fabulous McGill UGs!

IO now welcomes -- in addition to research articles and research notes --a new type of submission, 'essays.'

Essays have a 10,000 word limit. They propose innovative ideas of interest to a broad audience of IR scholars. [1/3]

When I see this type of 2-dimension ranks of political parties, I am highly suspicious. When the same has done with soccer teams, I start laughing... A random rank of soccer teams would probably be equally credible 🤣.

📢 I’d like to share with a 🧵 on what Xavier Jaravel and I have learned about the unequal effects of international trade through both cost-of-living and wages in the U.S.

For those of you who have seen my JMP, this is a much-revised draft

My family left Montreal, reluctantly, in 1978, like thousands of other Jewish/Anglophone families, after Bill 101 passed. It's so incredibly sad to see this self-defeating nonsense happening all over again in one of the world's most magnificent & beautiful cities.

We make what we think is an important point: Traditional social preferences are not sufficient to explain some empirical regularities, because they are based solely on the…
