Time to Reject the Privileging of Economic Theory Over Empirical Evidence? A Reply to Lawson (2009)
Juselius, Katarina - 2009
The present financial and economic crisis has revealed a systemic failure of academic economics and emphasized the need to re-think how to model economic phenomena. Lawson (2009) seems concerned that critics of standard models now will fill academic journals with contributions that make the same...

The distinction between dictatorial and incentive policy interventions and its implication for IV estimation
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen - 2010
We investigate if, and under which conditions, the distinction between dictatorial and incentive-based policy interventions affects the capacity of Instrument Variable (IV) methods to estimate the relevant treatment effect parameter of an outcome equation. The analysis is set in a non-trivial...

Characterizing the instrumental variable identifying assumption as sample selection conditions
Belzil, Christian; Hansen, Jörgen - 2012
We build on Rosenzweig and Wolpin (2000) and Keane (2010) and show that in order to fulfill the Instrumental variable (IV) identifying moment condition, a policy must be designed so that compliers and non-compliers either have the same average error term, or have an error term ratio equal to...
