Apply by November 2! Applications are open for our postdoctoral scholars program. These full-time, 2-year positions start in August 2027 and are based at the @thegraduatecenter.bsky.social Stone Center in New York. One is focused on wealth inequality, the other more broadly on economic inequality.

Impressive event yesterday - building support, brick by brick, for the International Panel on Inequality (IPI). The discussions were smart, sober, and at times even hopeful. Grateful to be part of the growing body of supporters. @stone-lis.bsky.social @morellisal.bsky.social @lisdata.bsky.social

I wish there was a #GCWealthProject style project but for income inequality estimates. The Chartbook of Economic Inequality by @morellisal.bsky.social is probably the closest I can think of.

Economists: "Let's assume away the problem". Sociologists: "Let's make the problem the paper".

@yonatanberman.com w/ Facundo Alvaredo and @morellisal.bsky.social ask: What can the wealth people leave at death tell us about wealth among the living? Under certain conditions, top estate shares closely track top wealth shares.
