  • 2022/01: Financing public education when altruistic agents have retirement concerns

    Daniel Montolio, Amedeo Piolatto, Luca Salvadori

    We study, theoretically and empirically, the link between voters’ support for public education and pensions when agents are free to choose between public and private education. We show that the (inter-generational) redistributive component in the retirement system creates a link between pensions and education. Specifically, the current investment in education...

    IEB Report 2/2021: La reforma de las universidades

    La reforma de las universidades

    Los sistemas universitarios de los países desarrollados tienen una importancia en las sociedades que los acogen que va mucho más allá de su peso específico. La contribución que realizan, en la formación de capital humano o en la actividad de investigación y transferencia, son vectores que determinan, de manera muy...

    2021/05: Terrorist attacks, Islamophobia and newborns’health

    Grace Armijos Bravo, Judit Vall Castelló

    Islamophobia has increased in recent years which can be partly attributed to terrorist attacks perpetrated by jihadist groups. Islamophobia might be a source of stress, being problematic for pregnant (Muslim) women. We examine how stress generated by the 2017 Catalonia (Spain) attacks affected the health of newborns whose mothers are...

    2021/04: What is at stake without high-stakes exams? Students’ evaluation and admission to college at the time of COVID-19

    Andreu Arenas, Caterina Calsamiglia, Annalisa Loviglio

    The outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020 inhibited face-to-face education and constrained exam taking. In many countries worldwide, high-stakes exams happening at the end of the school year determine college admissions. This paper investigates the impact of using historical data of school and high-stakes exams results to train a model to...

    2021/03: Sweeping up gangs: the effects of tough-on-crime policies from a network approach

    Magdalena Domínguez

    Worldwide, gang proliferation is fought mostly with tough punishment strategies such as sweeps. In this paper, I study their causal effect on crime for arrested individuals and known peers following a difference-in-differences strategy. I also take advantage of the network structure I retrieved to assess peer effects and identify key...

    2021/02: Reforming the Provision of Cross-Border Medical Care. Evidence from Spain

    Catalina Amuedo-Dorantes, Noelia Rivera-Garrido, Judit Vall Castelló

    Cross-border medical care, defined as care facilitated by a local health provider under pre-established regional agreements as in the case of EU citizens accessing care within EU countries, has been on the rise. Unlike medical tourism, typically sought by patients through their own volition and paid for out-of-pocket, cross-border medical...
