CSWEP strongly condemns Larry Summers’ behavior as revealed in the email correspondence with the late Jeffrey Epstein. While abuse of power in the economics profession is not new, rarely has the intent behind such abuse been so clearly stated.

Statement from the largest economics association about the BLS firing

As context: AEA approximately never makes such public statements

This is a big deal
August 1, 2025 AMERICAN ECONOMIC ASSOCIATION Committee on Economic Statistics and Committee on Government Relations Statement from the American Economic Association on the Dismissal of the BLS Commissioner Leaders of the American Economic Association express their grave concern over the dismissal of the Commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) earlier today. The independence of the federal statistical agencies is essential to the proper functioning of a modern economy. Accurate, timely, and impartial statistics are the foundation upon which households, businesses, and policymakers make critical decisions. Undermining the independence or credibility of these agencies threatens the integrity of the information that markets, institutions, and the public rely on every day. Measuring the vast and dynamic U.S. economy in real time is inherently challenging. It is standard practice for statistical estimates to be revised as more complete and higher-quality data become available. These revisions reflect the commitment of statistical agencies to accuracy, transparency, and methodological rigor-not failure or bias. The BLS has long had a well-deserved reputation for professional excellence and nonpartisan integrity. Safeguarding this tradition is vital for the continued health of the U.S. economy and public trust in our institutions. We call upon elected officials to respect and preserve the independence of the nation's statistical infrastructure. Lawrence Katz President, American Economic Association Katharine Abraham President-Elect, American Economic Association Karen Dynan Chair, American Economic Association Committee on Economic Statistics Kenneth Troske Chair, American Economic Association Committee on Government Relations

Larry Summers re BLS (on Twitter). "This is surely not the most serious threat to our democracy that Trump poses, but it is the one closest to what we economists do. I don’t see how serious members of the economics profession can stay in his administration." x.com/LHSummers/st...

🚼 What if making paternity leave mandatory could actually move the needle on gender equality?
In a new working paper, we study Spain’s paternity leave reforms from 2017 to 2021 — and the effects are remarkable.
📄 cep.lse.ac.uk/_NEW/PUBLICA...
Paternity leave in Spain
Between 2017 and 2021, Spain progressively extended paternity leave from 2 to 16 weeks, equalizing it with maternity leave and introducing mandatory weeks. A 2018 reform also allowed fathers to split their leave. Using administrative data on all leave permits since 2016, we analyze trends in paternity leave take-up. Following the introduction of mandatory leave, the share of fathers taking leave increased by around 20 percentage points, and most now use nearly the full entitlement. The share opting to split leave has steadily grown, surpassing 50% by 2023. However, this behavior shows marked heterogeneity: while overall uptake is uniform across groups, leave-splitting is far more common among higher-income fathers and more prevalent in certain sectors. Spain's experience illustrates how policy design can significantly increase paternity leave usage, though workplace flexibility and income-related constraints shape how fathers use that time.

The selection of the laureate will be carried out by a scientific committee composed of Pierre Cahuc, Alan Manning and Barbara Petrongolo. Eligibility for the prize requires that all authors have obtained their PhD after 1 September 2018. Papers written jointly with more senior researchers will not be considered.

Applications must be submitted by 31 August 2025.

Autistic people work as engineers, accountants, lawyers, doctors. They play all the sports. They write poetry and make art. There’s literally a Netflix show about people with serious autism dating. This puddlebrain should not be in charge of anything related to autism.

📣 New paper drop!
Why do some employees take up training and others don’t, even when the programs are the same?
Surprisingly, the answer isn’t HR policy—it’s middle managers.
