Historical exclusion may persist through the ties that helped excluded households cope, not only through the resources it denied them. Paper: woomora.github.io/JMP/WOO-MO… More of my work, published and in progress: woomora.github.io Thanks for reading! #EconTwitter

Excluded groups and neighborhoods get less schooling for generations. Can human capital gaps outlive resource equalization? If so, why? My JMP looks for answers on the two sides of a line drawn in 1542, with historical censuses, a survey & experiment, and a framework 🧵

I use a framework where schooling limits the ability to reciprocate with neighbors, delays earnings, and raises the chance of moving away. Under its assumptions, the survey and experiment imply a cost of ~2/5 of the perceived return, enough to generate the attendance gap.

We tend to think of political change as coming from below: organized masses challenge elite power. But where does the capacity to mobilize come from? Can excluded groups develop it under autocracy? My JMP traces one answer back to Peru's 1969 land reform. #EconJobMarket 🧵

Very proud of this, one phd, two kids, two jobs, and two transatlantic moves later (and too many times giving up in between). Thanks to all those who helped along the way! doi.org/10.1093/ej/ueag140
