Long central to nation- and state-building, compulsory military service is again in focus amid rising geopolitical tensions, reviving questions about its broader consequences. We construct a novel global database of conscription reforms spanning 78 countries, linked to harmonized census and survey...

We analyze the matching of buyers and sellers in a stylized market where the quality of the sellers’ goods is uncertain, and the buyers have correlated perceptions of the qualities. We show the existence of a symmetric equilibrium for alternative sales mechanisms within matches, and we evaluate...
