Evidence from Nazi Germany and 1940's America (and pretty much everywhere else) shows that discrimination is incredibly costly — to the victims, of course, but also the perpetrators. One modern solution is to invoke a diversity mandate. But new research shows that's not necessarily the answer. RESOURCES:"Discrimination, Managers, and Firm Performance: Evidence from 'Aryanizations' in Nazi Germany," by Kilian Huber, Volker Lindenthal, and Fabian Waldinger (Journal of Political Economy, 2021)."Diversity and Performance in Entrepreneurial Teams," by Sophie Calder-Wang, Paul A.

Co decyduje o tym, jak się nam żyje? Czym jest dobrobyt i jak go mierzymy? Czy jakość powietrza i ochrony zdrowia mają znaczenie? Co dobrobyt ma wspólnego z produktywnością? Dlaczego Niemcy są bardziej produktywne od Polski? Czy rządy prawa robią różnicę? Czy podwyżka płacy minimalnej może coś zmienić? Dlaczego bankructw firm powinno być jak najwięcej? Oraz jakie jest najbardziej produktywne miejsce na świecie? O to wszystko pytamy ekonomistę Marka Ignaszaka. Zapraszają: Piotr Żoch & Jakub Bodziony (Kultura Liberalna).  

Jak ocenić, czy politycy chcą nam zrobić dobrze czy źle? Skąd oni mają wiedzieć, czego pragną wyborcy? Czy preferencje Polaków bardzo różnią się od innych narodów? Jak przekładają się na gospodarkę? Czy najlepsza reforma wprowadzona np. w Szwecji może przynieść zupełnie odwrotne efekty w Polsce? Jak sprawdzić, co u nas zadziała lepiej, a co gorzej? O to wszystko pytamy ekonomistę Marcina Deca. Zapraszają: Joanna Tyrowicz & Marcin Bojanowski.  

This program looks at education and how the brain of adolescents primes them for learning. Caroline Hoxby, professor of economics at Stanford University and one of the world's leading scholars in the field of education economics, says investing in education in early adolescents can have profound impacts on the continuation of learning through teenage years and beyond. She says that more education leads to social cohesion, advancing economic opportunity, reducing inequality and decreasing geographic and political polarization. This discussion includes commentary by Jan-Werner Müller, Erik Hurst, and Silvia Bunge. Series: "UC Berkeley Graduate Lectures" [Public Affairs] [Education] [Show ID: 37733]

Preventing people from entering careers where they could maximize their potential places massive costs on society, and economists can measure the real impact. Chang-Tai Hsieh and Erik Hurst have discovered that declining barriers to careers for women and Black men over the last 50 years accounts for 25-40% of all productivity growth in the US. They join to discuss the implications of their critical findings.
