Les écoles du supérieur privé racolent les étudiant•es sur les réseaux en offrant des contrats d’apprentissage clés en main chez des entreprises partenaires. Le tout financé par l’État, et managé par d’anciennes ministres ayant mis en place ce système.

Some snapshots from ongoing work with @cleocz.bsky.social & Liu Li:
Looking at labor economics textbooks over time, you see the discipline shift in the 1970s.
Earlier textbooks revolve around industrial relations & trade unions. Later ones centre on labor markets & human capital.
That's right, the finance summer school is coming to Europe! June 4-5 at the LSE – applications are open until March 1.
Ça se tient bien !
Le chevauchement sur quelques mois de la personne qui remplacera Lane avec Lagarde risque pas de poser problème (niveau équilibre des nationalités) ?
Tu mets pas une pièce sur Cœuré ou Benassy-Quéré plutôt ?
Non, pas officiellement ! C'est mon analyse gros sabots (mais apparemment partagée, y compris en interne)
Banque de France's governor just announced a surprise resignation in June.
The timing has major political implications: it lets Macron appoint a successor whose 6-year term (ending 2032) will outlast the next president's 5-year mandate (2027-2032), preventing any potential far-right appointee

Wow... Writing this paper was a bit like watching a soap opera unfold. But it's out now in @bjpir.bsky.social
The big story is still: The ECB marched forward, with clear democratic authorisation, but not the Fed. Green central banking is much more democratic than people think.

The affordability crisis is an inequality crisis. When prices spike in key sectors, it's not just inflation—it's a massive redistribution shock that hits poor households hardest.
In our **new working paper**, we identify the sectors that matter most. A thread 🧵

Very interesting paper on the rise of design-based empirical work in political science. No surprises: Survey experiments have surged to 45% of designed-based publications, which are highly concentrated in top journals & institutions.

🚨new article🚨
"Polarisation" has become one of those terms commonly used to discuss the dire state of politics and democracy today
Here @juanroch.bsky.social, @daniel-balinhas.bsky.social and I argue that this simplistic framing is counterproductive

Aujourd'hui, 3 députés RN se sont introduits à l'Université avec des journalistes d'extrême-droite, et filmé des étudiant·es malgré leur refus explicite. L'idée ? Prouver notre islamisation totale, en surfant sur une histoire marginale de prières pendant les intercours. Nous sommes très en colère.
Le premier cycle de séminaires du Récri se termine ! Nous avons préparé une journée d’étude le 4/12 pour mettre en valeur la jeune recherche en économie, suivie d’une table ronde sur le pluralisme en action.

My all time favorite remains Jens Weidman (Bundesbank) explaining why lowering interest rates in 2014 is bad thanks to a synonym-stacking masterclass
One thing I absolutely love in central bank rhetorics: declare a boundary, then elegantly step right over it.
Here's Richard W. Fisher (Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas) on Obama's 2008 fiscal package
