A stunning paper by Derenoncourt, Kim, Kuhn, @schularick.bsky.social! “Since the 1980s, the wealth gap has widened again as capital gains have predominantly benefited white households, and convergence via income growth and savings has come to a halt.” academic.oup.com/qje/article-...

Mightily impressive paper by @mokuhn.bsky.social and Philip Jung on the labour market effects of the German Hartz reforms — also highly relevant for political scientists interested in insider-outsider politics and labour market dualisation. academic.oup.com/restud/advan...

Great to see our paper “Unemployment insurance reforms and labor market dynamics” out in The Review Economic Studies. With @macrophilip.bsky.social & Benjamin Hartung, we revisit the old question of labor market research of the effects of unemployment insurance reforms on unemployment rates. 1/10

Today I had another exchange with German-speaking economists on the challenges facing the German and euro area economy and what this implies for monetary policy @ecb.europa.eu. One focus was how to make sure that the German packages for defence and infrastructure will become a success. 1/3

Die Zollkriege von 2025 haben begonnen. Vom Zaun gebrochen von Trump: Unnötig, kostspielig, gefährlich Europa wird das nächste Ziel sein. Drei Prinzipien sollten unsere Antwort leiten: 1. Europa muss zusammenstehen und darf sich nicht auseinander dividieren lassen. 1/N

👇@Schularick.bsky.social mit einer klaren Handelungsempfehlung. Wichtig ist, alle Beteiligten in Europa davon zu überzeugen, dass dieser Weg für sie individuell der bessere Weg ist. An höhere Ziele oder Moral zu appellieren ist in einer Zeit nationaler Egozentrik nicht zielführend. 1/2
