Good to see a piece about the EUI in The Economist. But this is a hatched job, with little resemblance to reality. Charlemagne is usually excellent, so this is odd. Can only think that @spignal.bsky.social talked to people who don't really know what's going on.

Write that you’re offering a nuanced close reading of a complex process (and don’t cite Healy)

Day 1 of the Age-Period-Cohort Workshop - organised by our @rafgrotti.bsky.social - is a wrap! ✨

Key takeaway: the APC identification problem may be an unsolvable puzzle, but there are some tricks to get around it.

Thanks to @juhoharkonen.bsky.social & J. van Leeuwen for sharing their expertise!

Realistisesti, tuskin taipuisi. Perusjärjestelmän ulkopuolelta tuleva rahoitus sitä kuitenkin voisi taivuttaa, jos rahoituksen ehtoihin kuuluisi mm. joustavampi palkkaus

Mutta jos taipuisi, niin omastakin mielestä sanotaanko 5-12 v väittelystä voisi olla paras haarukka

Esim. seuraavanlaista: houkutellaan hyvässä nousuvaiheessa olevia nuorehkoja tutkijoita, annetaan kilpailukykyinen vakkaripesti ja esim. 10:n vuoden rahoitus tutkimusryhmälle milli / vuosi starttirahalla. Vaikkapa Sitra voisi keksiä itsensä uudelleen ja ryhtyä tuollaisen rahoittajaksi

Toki tämä tarkoittaa uusia ideoita ja kunnon panostusta (ml. palkkoihin ja muihin resursseihin) ja business-as-usual tuskin tuottaa tulosta, etenkin kun muillakin mailla on sama juoni mielessä

Kannattaa sitä silti yrittää. Esim. finanssikriisin aikaan (alussa) eurooppalaisiin yliopistoihin haki yht’äkkiä jenkkejä muun puutteessa. Osa jäikin. Toinen iskun paikka on Covidin vuoksi jatkoaikaa väikkärintekoon saaneet, jotka nyt etsivät muiden kanssa seuraavaa paikkaa. Hakijoita näyttää olevan

Today was my last day as Director of the @eui-eu.bsky.social Max Weber Programme. In September I told the fellows that they will look back at the postdoc years as the best ones of their careers. My years at the MWP matched those. I’ll miss them, the fantastic fellows, and the view from the office

Myös lukioon meno vähentyi viimeisten vuosikymmenten aikana ja korkeakoulutuksen lisäksi lukioon tulisi panostaa, koska sieltä todennäköisimmin tulevat ne korkeakouluun menijätkin ja siellä mahdollisesti menestyvät

Got it. An alternative would be to equalize outcomes (e.g., income) when inequalities arise from conditions that are hard and questionable to treat (a no-child policy would be the ultimate equalizer of inequalities bw kods, but maybe not so smart either)
