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'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?? 🏒
Welcome Professor Carvalho! We're thrilled to have you join us at the Pardee School next year!
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.
Hi team! I’m giving a talk on USAID withdrawal — send me your best work! Already including stuff from @ryanjablonski.bsky.social Bridgetet Seim Alex Yeandle @guygrossman.bsky.social @shelbycarvalho.bsky.social @yangyangzhou.bsky.social @fromagehomme.bsky.social @haleyswedlund.bsky.social
The abstract of the paper (co-authoed with @yangyangzhou.bsky.social, @shelbycarvalho.bsky.social and Iman Dahr) is pasted below.
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).
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.
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 🤘
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.
