I've been thinking & reading a lot about leadership & what makes a good leader the last few weeks (more on why later). Thought I would share just a couple of the more interesting recent papers I came across…of course much more reading ahead. Please feel free to send suggestions!
First, leadership & norms. #ChristianDippel & #StephanHeblich show how leaders shape beliefs & social norms using data on the FortyEighters (political refugees from Germany). So leaders can build positive social norms!! Can they also create negative ones?? nber.org/papers/w24656.…
Second, “Who Becomes a Politician?” Some of my very favorite political economists on whether a democracy can attract competent leaders & still keep broad representation. They say: YES!!! By #ErnestoDalBó #FredFinan @OlleFolke #TorstenPersson @johannarickne nber.org/papers/w23120
