Great new job market paper on land reform in Ecuador by @Nichogachet at @ManUniEconomics! Finds similar patterns to my recent paper w @JenKuanWang in Taiwan—key differences in productivity effects between public land transfers and expropriation.
🚨 Job Market Paper Here! Are we fully examining every aspect of contemporary agrarian reforms to understand their true impacts? In my JMP I analyze the effects of public land transfers (PLT) versus expropriations, the primary land allocation methods used in Latin America reforms
