How exceptional was Italy’s inequality path in the interwar years? What was the role of wars, depression, and authoritarianism?🚨 Our new paper w/@GGabbuti in Explorations in Economic History explores these questions.

Congratulations! Delighted to see the methodology of dynamic social tables applied to the relatively recent past.
New working paper out in the @SantAnnaPisa LEM series! Together with @EdoardoRappa, we apply the Dynamic Social Table methodology to estimate for the first time continuous series of income inequality in Italy, 1951-1973 - that is, the so-called European Golden Age

In our new paper (BMJ Global Health), we systematically collected 923 historical growth studies covering 122 countries from 1814–2016.
By harmonising height-by-age data, we reconstruct stunting patterns over two centuries.

What is child stunting — and how has it changed over the last 200 years?
Stunting means being too short for one’s age due to chronic undernutrition and disease in early life.
It’s one of the clearest markers of cumulative deprivation in childhood.

New paper on the capitalization of the world with @BrankoMilan just out!
Capital income remains very unequally distributed worldwide, but inequality has slightly declined.
Meanwhile, the share of people earning at least $100 per year from K income increased from 12% to 27%.
María Gómez León retweeted
What is the impact of technological change on wage inequality?
Our latest working paper presents a unified empirical framework that isolates the effects of new technologies such as automation and AI on the entire wage distribution.
