I'm excited to share my latest research, “Building Capacity in the Public Administration” (with @annagumpert.bsky.social ). We examine a key tool for building administrative capacity: seconding officials from high-capacity to low-capacity public administrations.

It is also my first CESifo Working Paper.
In short: We study "local reallocation": the exit of some workers from production even though employment increases in the same area and industry.
A short explanation 👇

A thread. 🧵👇 shorturl.at/RIjCr
1️⃣ Half of West German labor markets saw a “reversal of fortune” from 1926–2019.
2️⃣ Early industrialization spurred development but became a liability after WWII.
3️⃣ It created a lopsided economic structure dominated by large firms, limiting adaptability and innovation.
Shows that 19th-c. industrialization was a key driver of the shifts in regional prosperity across Germany over the past century.

It was (or at the moment, is) a wonderful institute and the network was tremendously helpful in dissaminating work in labour economics.
IZA will sorely be missed 😢
So sorry for all IZA employees!
