As I am now handling papers at AEJ:Policy again, I want to encourage authors of papers that identify partial equilibrium effects to consider (in a rigorous manner) how they relate to policy effects or general equilibrium effects.

Important non-curricular insights about thriving in academia from stellar @econsandy.bsky.social
I was incredibly honored to be awarded the CSWEP Carolyn Shaw Bell Award. When I accepted the award, I talked about the importance of mentoring.
The lessons I pass on are kind of obvious. But they are important, so I am going to share them yet again. (A🧵)

"Simply put, when immigrants come to a place looking for jobs, they also demand goods and services—thus creating jobs for native-born workers… The question has always been which effect is bigger."

Next step, we really want to understand better why employment of newly arrived refugees is historical high? And will it last? Labor demand is part of it and maybe we are getting some policies right too
The employment Level for newly arrived refugees breaks all records in Denmark - and at similar Level as for Ukranians.

Reskilling moves injured workers from disability benefits to full-time employment. Reskilling subsidies pay for themselves four times over, and current rates of reskilling are substantially below the social optimum.

I am on the #econjobmarket this year!
My JMP focuses specifically on second-generation migrant girls. How does education policy impact them as they grow up in a highly egalitarian society, yet within families that have migrated from more gender-traditional origins?

Incredibly bad news for Economics in Germany. It was such a coup to attract a young superstar (from MIT!) to run one of our leading research institutes. I can’t believe we are losing him and all the potential he brought to IZA.
