🚀 I'm on the #EconSky Job Market!

My JMP asks a classic question:
Do large, dominant firms foster or hinder innovation?

To study this, I turn to the Great Merger Wave (1895–1904), when >2,600 U.S. firms combined into corporate giants like U.S. Steel and DuPont.

A JMP 🧵👇 (1/13)

Academic tip: sometimes you have to write "Importantly," to get a sentence started and then you can go back and delete it.

Having a unique ORCID identifier is one way for academics to distinguish themselves from other researchers with the same name, but a far simpler solution would be for the bigger one to consume the smaller one.

New IZA paper by @jangromadzki.bsky.social and @paweladrjan.bsky.social shows anti-LGBTQ resolutions in Poland increased migration intentions. Their findings nicely echo our own (osf.io/preprints/os...) from the same case: even symbolic exclusionary politics can shape people’s choices on the ground.

Anti-LGBTQ resolutions aka "LGBT-free zones" in Poland have increased residents’ intentions to migrate, both within the country and abroad. Together with @paweladrjan.bsky.social, we use unique data on all clicks on the global job site Indeed.

Please see @joshua-goodman.com's great initiative below. Happy to do the same for PhD students working on productivity, in org econ or IO.
I'd love to help make BlueSky one of the places where young scholars introduce themselves and their work to the world.

An economist reached out and asked where they might publish a review they'd written.

Here's my (certainly incomplete) list of 30+ journals where economists publish reviews. bit.ly/3QfaE6m

(Additions welcome with a specific review example!)
