nativist populism, except it's the world's richest man, a foreigner, unconstitutionally witholding congressionally appropriated funds for American preschoolers

do you know how bad you have to be as president to make the Luka to Lakers thing the 2nd dumbest trade related news of the last 24hrs

Thank you so much, Sebastian, for your kind and thoughtful comments. It was a great workshop. Congratulations to the Karl Polanyi Society, the university of Vienna and CEU for hosting me! @sebdiessner.bsky.social

🌟 Excited to announce our latest article in New Political Economy 🌟 @fbulfone.bsky.social and I investigate the complex interplay of politics and banking challenging the notion that political influence always harms banks. "Is Politics Bad for Banking?" - Full article here: doi.org/10.1080/1356...

Since the 1970s, advanced economies have reduced top income tax rates a lot. In the same period, these economies have become more financialized. In a new paper @ripejournal.bsky.social, David Hope, @julianlimberg.bsky.social and I argue that these developments may be related: doi.org/10.1080/0969...

Have written a longer version of this, including on the history of social care and how we got here. Enough of acting timidly when you have the largest majority in memory. To govern is to choose. So, choose something. benansell.substack.com/p/profiles-i...

Important work!

How widely (or not) the benefits of new technologies like AI are distributed is a crucial political-economy question. This paper finds evidence that collective wage bargaining helps ensure that the gains are not captured primarily by capital owners and high-skill workers. @wzwysen.bsky.social

with dear friends and brilliant co-authors @sebdiessner.bsky.social and David Hope, we have a new paper soon out in @comppol.bsky.social

Happy to share that our paper on why peripheral regions vote for the radical right is now out with the APSR: tinyurl.com/4zvv67d4 A quick thread on how this idea came along and developed within the last 5 years:

New paper in Socio-Economic Review! We examine the relationship between the density of college majors in occupations and occupation-level earnings. This "major specialization" of occupations boosts earnings, over and above closure mechanisms and skills. doi.org/10.1093/ser/...
