Best of #econtwitter - Week of April 9, 2023: paper summaries
Welcome readers old and new to this week’s edition of Best of Econtwitter. Please submit suggestions — very much including your own work! — over email or on Twitter @just_economics.
🚨 HEADS UP 🚨:
Twitter is currently blocking Substack from embedding tweets — for anticompetitive reasons. Some earlier anti-Substack actions were repealed, but the blocking of embeds remains (more, more, more).
In this week’s edition, there will be some manual screenshots (which if clicked will link to the underlying tweet), and also some raw links. Apologies and hopefully this will be resolved ASAP.
