Amazing public good release by @rickhornbeck.bsky.social and his collaborators! No doubt this will generate even more (interesting) #econhist research about the United States.

Just in time for #Juneteenth my new article “Creating Citizen–Subjects: Reconstruction and the Political Invention of Black Sovereignty” is now out in the Journal of Historical Political Economy. TL; DR: freedom was only the first step in creating citizenship. www.nowpublishers.com/article/Deta...

Excited to share this new paper on how race was constructed along socioeconomic lines in US history, during a period of unfulfilled potential for social change between emancipation and Jim Crow segregation

Super cool to see a paper like this as an NBER working paper. I haven't tracked it systematically, but I think there's a lot more of this style of work on race and racism in econ now than when I started paying attention to the field in the 2000s. www.nber.org/papers/w33502
