Reversing signals of neglect: Legacy pollution, adaptive governance, and resilience in historic coal communities
A cross-disciplinary literature on just transitions shows that shifting to a lower-carbon economy can take jobs, tax revenues, and people from fossil-fuel-dependent communities. But few studies examine how pollution left by extractive industries may amplify and perpetuate losses. We conducted interviews with 39 stakeholders involved in remediating waterways polluted by abandoned coal mines in Pennsylvania, which once led coal production in the U.…
Can Collective Action Institutions Outperform the State
A core literature in the field of public policy seeks to understand whether decentralized collective action institutions will emerge to provide public goods. While some studies examine how they perform relative to public institutions, they fail to account for the possibility of public institutions self‐selecting into the most challenging contexts. If they do, finding that public institutions perform worse could reflect the greater challenge rathe…
How Local Economic Conditions Affect School Finances, Teacher Quality, and Student Achievement: Evidence from the Texas Shale Boom
Whether improved local economic conditions lead to better student outcomes is theoretically ambiguous and will depend on how schools use additional revenues and how students and teachers respond to rising private sector wages. The Texas boom in shale oil and gas drilling, with its large and localized effects on wages and the tax base, provides a unique opportunity to address this question that spans the areas of education, labor markets, and publ…
Broadening Benefits from Natural Resource Extraction: Housing Values and Taxation of Natural Gas Wells as Property
We study the effects of the property tax base shock caused by natural gas drilling in the Barnett Shale in Texas—a state that taxes oil and gas wells as property. Over the boom and bust in drilling, housing appreciation closely followed the oil and gas property tax base, which expanded the total tax base by 23 percent at its height. The expansion led to a decline in property tax rates while maintaining or increasing revenues to schools. Overall, …

Fair Trade-Organic Coffee Cooperatives, Migration, and Secondary Schooling in Southern Mexico
We explore three trends in rural southern Mexico (Fair Trade coffee, migration, and conditional cash transfers) that could explain the rapid rise in education from 1995–2005 using survey data from 845 coffee farming households in Oaxaca and Chiapas, Mexico. Results from a household fixed-effects model show that household participation in a Fair Trade-organic cooperative contributed to about a 0.7 year increase in schooling for girls. US migration…
