Best of #econtwitter - JMPs 2022 special edition, part two

If your thread (or your student’s, or your colleague’s) is missing below, submissions are as always extremely welcome.

Editions from prior years are here.

As written last year: Plausibly these JMP editions have the highest densities of good content of all the newsletters. These are presented in even less of a sense of any order than usual.

Meta threads: women; theory; spatial; religion and culture

Job market papers

"We show that Black families who were enslaved until the Civil War continue to have considerably lower education, income, and wealth today than Black families who were free before the Civil War" such a cool paper. lukasalthoff.com/research

Thank you, Dr. @m_clem, for highlighting my JMP! How has Venezuelan immigration affected incumbent students in Peru? 1. Incumbents transfer to higher-quality schools with fewer migrants. 2. There are minor negative effects on incumbents' schooling outcomes.

Michael Clemens @m_clem

Careful evidence of negative effects on Peruvian students from the influx of Venezuelan students into schools Principal mechanism: larger class sizes, i.e. schools under-resourced to serve refugee kids Important job market paper by @MariaAMartinez3 —> https://t.co/go2LFzP2Ix https://t.co/a6pt8KsWp2

(1/2) Is discrimination really always either taste-based or (inaccurate) statistical? In my job market paper, I provide evidence from a series of experiments and present a new form of discrimination, potentially linking these concepts: discrimination based on motivated reasoning
