It's a very sad day. Just notified that @iza.org is closing its doors as of 31 December 2025. At a time when labor is under attack and technological change moves at an ever-faster pace, I can't help but think that this is a short-sighted decision. My heart goes out to those folks who work there.

I was at a formal dinner with many accomplished people I didn't know.

813 US billionaires held a record $6.72 trillion in wealth at the end of 2024. The bottom 50% of Americans held roughly $3.9 trillion in wealth. When 813 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

There was a time when going to the US academic job market with Political Economy as a field was suicide. This put students mostly from developing countries at a disadvantage in the market. I wonder what US Econ academia thinks now. #econsky

Deeply saddened to learn of Prof Dick Nelson's passing. His foundational work on evolutionary economics profoundly shaped my thinking on innovation and the limits of market failure theory. We met several times, including at Ford Foundation (he the second from right, and I, the only woman 🤔) 1/4 🧵

Scientists, given more time and flexibility, often stumble upon unexpected discoveries—like Alexander Fleming, who saw a mould had killed the bacteria he was growing, paving the way for antibiotics. Recent study analysed such findings—more of them than you'd expect. 👉 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

I have several papers that explore tariff wars using economic models. Here’s what they tell us about likely outcomes (🧵) TLDR: All countries ultimately lose. While the overall impact isn’t catastrophic for larger economies like the US, it’ll be devastating for small countries.

Richard Nelson has passed away. I had the privilege of meeting him at Globelics in Athens, some years ago, and his insights and passion left a lasting impression on me. The scientific community has lost a giant. He will be deeply missed.
