Based on a data set that we collected from the top research institutions in economics around the globe (including universities, business schools and other or- ganizations such as central banks), we document the underrepresentation of women in economics. For the 238 universities and business schools...

Using matching methods, we want to check whether nursing home were lending themselves to excess mortality even before the pandemic. Controlling for a number of characteristics (age, gender, degree of dependence, state of health and resources) of the elderly population in and outside nursing homes,...
