Thinking of my niece who rides the bus to school in Buenos Aires every day wearing a green bandana. Huge victory for a generation of Argentine women.

As people in poor countries get richer, they have a *greater* tendency to emigrate. I just released two major studies, one joint with @MariapiaMendola, exploring this remarkable phenomenon. Long-read summary here: cgdev.org/blog/emigration-ri… Topline in this thread —>

I am at a loss of words...my goodness...Alberto brought a larger-than-life spirit to this profession, our department, and all the students he mentored throughout his career. No way to describe the magnitude of this loss...RIP.
From @Cutler_econ Dear economist friends. I am very sad to report that Alberto Alesina passed away today. Apparently, he was hiking with his beloved wife Susan and had a heart attack. He was a great treasure whom we shall all miss.

On the economics of gender in the 21st century, Marianne Bertrand's Ely Lecture is magisterial as you'd expect. These figures show just two of the fresh and counterintuitive facts that she documents. And explains. aeaweb.org/articles?id=10.12…

Super fascinating paper showing that private role models are complements but public role models are substitutes to prosocial behavior
New WP: Experiment testing effects of private vs public role models during COVID-19. Surprising result: positive private (citizens volunteering) and negative public (politicians mismanaging crisis) role models increase in donations and volunteering.[1/8] dropbox.com/s/3918qas0c9u6d2…
