A few years ago, we started organising regular workshops on different methods in the history of economics at the Walras Pareto Centre to better understand what tools we can use and how. This is the first in a series of blog posts that aim to share what we learn!
Check out the key take aways from a workshop we did at the Centre Walras Pareto with @cherfeld s PhD student Alexandra Quack about doing interviews. Blog post written by Maria Gutiérrez Ruan wp.unil.ch/cwp-blog/2023/08/… @Societies_HET #historyofeconomics #interviewing

This @QJEHarvard paper is fantastic. The type of big economic history work I wish there was more of. I'm teaching it tomorrow, which will be fun.
I think it shows the fundamental power of careful, long-run historical data work. With the power to inform current policy debates.

I am very happy to announce the public release of Egypt’s 1848 and 1868 individual-level population census samples. The digitization of these samples is a project that I’ve worked on since my PhD in 2009-2012 (1/n)
ANNOUNCING new historical data release--two Egypt census samples from the 19th century now available to users! Thanks to data produced by @msaleh1982.

If you are an underrepresented student considering a Ph.D. in economics but you might need a bit more preparation, please consider the Columbia Bridge to the Ph.D. program! It is a great opportunity to take classes and work on research with great faculty (like me!)

A new @CeterisNParibus episode, revolving around a cataclysm sentence for economics, but leading to very broad and essential discussions about economics itself. With a great group of guests: @SaraStevano @phbent @F_Allisson & Herman Daly (produced by @mvsbach). @Societies_HET
What is the most important information we can get from econ? Listen to our latest episode to hear what these 4 economists think: @phbent @SaraStevano @F_Allisson & Herman Daly! ceterisneverparibus.net/a-ca…
