Bayesian Model Averaging
A paper on BMA applied to cross-country growth data, advocating a less agnostic approach.
The Kuznets process
Recently added: a paper on the Kuznets process, with Huikang Ying. We ask how a structural transformation will affect wage inequality. See Life during structural transformation.
Foreign aid and domestic absorption
Just added: a paper on foreign aid with Nicolas Van de Sijpe. We introduce a new instrument for aid and use it to study whether aid is absorbed, and how. See Foreign aid and domestic absorption.
Virtuous circles and the case for aid
Would virtuous circles, or self-reinforcing growth, strengthen the case for aid? See here for a new paper with Patrick (Paddy) Carter: Virtuous circles and the case for aid.
New survey on regional growth
Just added: a new literature review on regional growth and regional decline, co-authored with Holger Breinlich and Gianmarco I. P. Ottaviano. Comments and criticisms can be posted here.
