📽️ It's been great to work with @discoverecon.bsky.social & @cephie.bsky.social to create a new series of videos to add to our suite of resources aimed at bringing economics and political history to life - showing young people that working in economics is about far more than finance.
New set of videos from @discoverecon.bsky.social, @cagewarwick.bsky.social & @cephie.bsky.social - the last set were fantastic for development economics and this new set look just as interesting... #EconSky #EduSky www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Very proud PhD supervisor announcement: Malte Hinrichs has published his first-ever article! He explores the role of water mills in Germany's industrialisation. Think of it as "Mokyr in Prussia". @cephie.bsky.social Well worth a read: doi.org/10.1016/j.ee...
I was teaching Mokyr on the Industrial Revolution to my final-year economics students just last week. And next week, we're doing his work on the Great Irish Famine!
Extraordinary news: Joel Mokyr has won the Nobel for his work on the Industrial Revolution. Entirely deserved, though in truth, he ought to win another for his work on the Great Irish Famine, which transformed how we think about Ireland’s nineteenth century and the economic history of catastrophe.
