My former JMP is now accepted at @restatjourna! Here a thread from my wonderful coauthor @masera_federico about why lead poisoning contributed to the rise of violent crimes in US city centers from the 60s to the 90s and how it then affected suburbanization and racial segregation.
📢JUST ACCEPTED at @restatjournal with @fede_curci . Millions of americans were poisoned by lead. We show this determined the distribution of crime in the US. In response rich and white Americans moved to the suburbs still shaping racial segregation today. A short thread 🧵

più dell'80% hanno fatto il liceo classico. Relazionato con l'elitismo del classico:
tanti colleghi in università mi chiedono dove abbia fatto il liceo: che io abbia un PhD in economia con un passato da perito elettronico (e non da liceale) e che questo non sia neanche pensabile dall'accademico medio italiano parla molto di #merito.
