It is with deep sadness that the Paris School of Economics community and the academic world have learned of the passing of Roger Guesnerie, its founding president. His intellectual legacy will continue to inspire the academic community.

I’ve always loved Sims (2010)

Screenshot of Sims, Journal of Economic Perspectives 2010, entitled

But Economics Is Not an Experimental Science

Without apparent irony, Angrist and Pischke quote Griliches (1986):

"If the data were perfect, collected from well-designed randomized experiments, there would hardly be room for a separate field of
econometrics.” The fact is, economics is not an experimental science and cannot be. "Natural" experiments and "quasi" experiments are not in fact experiments, any more than are Prescott's "computational" experiments (for example, Kydland and Prescott, 1996). They are rhetorical devices that are often invoked to avoid having to confront real econometric difficulties. Natural, quasi, and computational experiments, as well as regression discontinuity design, can all, when well applied, be useful, but none are panaceas. This essay by Angrist and Pischke, in its enthusiasm for some real accomplishments in certain subfields of economics, makes overbroad claims for its favored methodologies. What the essay says about macroeconomics is mainly nonsense.
The fact that the essay is so mistaken about macroeconomics reflects a broader problem. Recent enthusiasm for single-equation, linear, instrumental variables approaches in applied microeconomics has led many in these fields to avoid undertaking research that would require them to think formally and carefully about the central issues of nonexperimental inference-what Griliches saw, and I see, as the core of econometrics. Providing empirically grounded policy advice necessarily involves confronting these difficult central issues. If applied economists narrow the focus of their research and critical reading to various forms of pseudo-experimental analysis, the profession loses a good part of its ability to provide advice about the effects and uncertainties surrounding policy issues.

I wrote about how population stratification in genetic analyses led to a decade of false findings and almost certainly continues to bias emerging results. But we are starting to have statistical tools to sniff it out. A 🧵:
