This rich thread highlights the academic papers written at the @HarvardGrwthLab in the past 10 years that have made important contributions to the economic complexity paradigm. Read on! @sfiscience @Kennedy_School
At the Growth Lab, an interdisciplinary team of researchers explores the secret of #EconomicGrowth from both an academic and applied angle. These are our most important academic papers of the past decade on #EconomicComplexity. (1/22)

Fue un gusto colaborar con el Consejero de Industrias, Minas y Energía de Andalucía (y viejo amigo) Jorge @ParadelaJSr en el contexto del #ProyectoCREA. Grandes consejos nos dio el Consejero y sus colegas del Consejo de Gobierno. Identificamos muchas oportunidades y prioridades de reforma.
Hace unos meses nos reunimos con @ricardo_hausman y el equipo de @HarvardGrwthLab y @OliverWyman para explicar nuestra hoja de ruta y contribuir al análisis del Proyecto CREA. La descarbonización y energías limpias están en el corazón de las grandes oportunidades para #Andalucía.

I have a legal question for which I do not know the answer. If Congress mandates a certain program, is the Executive allowed to unilaterally kill or imperil it? My guess: NO. So, is the unilateral killing of all USAID programs legal? Can it be done without congressional authorization? If not, can the courts stop the destruction process?

I am not saying that ALL public goods are industry-specific. But many are, they are hard to identify and provide unless you engage at the industry or cluster level. And then there are learning curves that can produce positive spillovers. Would solar panels be this cheap without IP?

Economics offers a set of boxes that one can check to assess the viability of projects. Collective or team tacit knowledge is just not one of them. In this month’s @ProSyn op-ed, I argue that Sweden’s Northvolt defaulted because of it.

This great article by the @HarvardGrwthLab ‘s Tim O’Brien and Tim Freeman explains what is the problem with rural America, why federal grants are not very helpful and what changes can make a difference. Read on!
Our research team has spent 2+ years investigating economic growth constraints in #Wyoming. In this article for @ConversationUS, they outline problems facing rural economies, the flaws of federal grant funding designed to help them, and ways to improve the system. "Federal entities could instead work in concert with each other and with local leaders, starting with the place-specific needs of regional economies, and develop custom projects accordingly. Instead of shopping around centrally designed programs, federal agencies could do more to empower and support locally determined transformation efforts."
