Graph showing a strong negative correlation between GDP per capita and unequal gender role norms.

While economists have extensively studied gender norms affecting women, masculinity norms – the informal rules that guide and constrain the behaviours of boys and men – remain underexplored. This column reviews how such norms can shape economic outcomes in labour markets, health, education, households, and politics. Drawing on new survey data from 87,000 individuals across 70 countries, the authors show that adherence to masculinity norms strongly predicts men's labour supply, risk-taking, health behaviours, and support for authoritarian leadership.

This collaboration from @cgdev.org and @nytimes.com is powerful. My hope is scholars and journalists find more paths to work collaboratively in data-driven storytelling, to understand the harm being caused, and to jointly defend freedom of speech.

About 1/6 of the total population of Serbia protested government malfeasance today. In the US that would be more than fifty million people.

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

And beyond the failures, what we saw was clearly the tone, the tactics, the demeanor of abusers. Two of them. snyder.substack.com/p/five-failu...

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

Appeasement at Munich World Wars, Past and Possible

"Appeasement at Munich: World Wars, Past and Possible"
The symmetry between Germany-Czechoslovakia in 1938 and Russia-Ukraine in 2022 is uncanny, and pausing for a moment on the resemblances might help us to take a broader view of today.
