The evidence keeps accumulating that Brexit was an astonishing self-inflicted economic policy disaster. The fact that it is a slow-moving one bodes ill for those who think that populist economic mismanagement will translate into voters punishing populists. www.nber.org/system/files...

A good peer reviewer - who engages thoughtfully and constructively, teaches, notes what's good about a paper and what can be improved - is such a positive force. As a mentor (and as an editor and an author), I send out deep thanks to everyone who works hard to write kind and useful reviews.

Here is our response to a recent critique of our 2018 paper on police killings+mental health.
The critique had obvious problems, but nevertheless instigated a formal investigation (which we passed). This was stressful. I am posting because our reply could be useful for teaching:
