Self-reliance is easy to endorse. Achieving it is much harder. New evidence presented at the Joint Data Center's Research Conference on Forced Displacement challenges common assumptions about aid, livelihoods, and what it really takes to support displaced populations.

I'm excited to share that I'll join Boston University (@bupardeeschool.bsky.social and @gdp-center.bsky.social) as an Assistant Professor of International Development in fall 2027 after I finish my postdoc at Stanford. Anyone know if professors can play in the Beanpot?? 🏒

Fact! @jamestalarico.bsky.social helped me register to vote in 2008 as a first-time voter. We were sophomores and he led the university-wide “Hook the vote” campaign. Endlessly proud of him and ready for a campaign of hope!🤘🥹

I am delighted to join my colleagues in Cambridge at the @realcentre.bsky.social next week to share my work on the political economy of refugee education. UK folks, it would be lovely to see you in person at the seminar! See below for details (in-person and online).

With less than 1 week until the TX primaries, here are some photos of me and @jamestalarico.bsky.social from the archives. If you've wondered whether his amazing interviews (Colbert!!) are just political speak: I can confidently say that he is the real deal and is worthy of your trust and support 🤘

ONLINE tomorrow: @guygrossman.bsky.social will present our new paper on the effects aid cuts for refugees. We follow 5400 households over 2 years and leverage a regression discontinuity design in Uganda. We find that self-reliance policies are not enough to mitigate the negative impact of cuts.

At #SPSA2026 in New Orleans this week? Come to my favorite event of the year: the 6th Annual Borders and Migration workshop. Six panels on Thursday/Friday with great scholars and lots of feedback, plus an author-meets-critics on my book "In Our Interest" with some real heated takes.

1. Look, there are basically just two ways to run the global oil market: petro-imperialism and petro-consumerism. Historically USA has embraced both, varying over time. The attack on #Venezuela is a return to naked petro-imperialism. Thread.

My typical response to school shootings is to call for policy changes. But I’m afraid the task ahead is bigger than that.

Thanks to @harvardcid.bsky.social for highlighting our World Development article on the politics of refugee integration. We argue that refugee education diverges from standard political economy frameworks applied to citizen populations and propose a conceptual framework reflecting unique features👇

This hits close to home. Six of those killed, including 2 teens, were part of the skating community here in Boston. I first met Vadim and Evgenia in 2004. It was a joy to watch them coach their son Max to the world stage over the years. My heart goes out to the families and entire skating community.
