To be clear: this awful decision has two aspects. First, it‘s incredibly sad that Simon Jäger is stepping down. He‘s the best possible match for IZA and one of the nicest persons in the profession. But second, of all people, why choose Armin Falk as successor??? /1

Incredibly bad news for Economics in Germany. It was such a coup to attract a young superstar (from MIT!) to run one of our leading research institutes. I can’t believe we are losing him and all the potential he brought to IZA.
