Working Papers
The working papers are submitted by the Forum on Political Economy Fellows. They cover all things politics, economics and public policy and draw on theories, methods and evidence from across social science disciplines. What they share in common is a commitment to facts, logic and evidence. The purpose is to highlight working papers before they are published in peer-reviewed journals and similar venues.
