  • A Local Projections Approach to Difference‐in‐Differences

    Open AccessArindrajit Dube, Daniele Girardi et al.ARTICLEJournal of Applied Econometrics2025

    We propose a local projections (LPs)‐based difference‐in‐differences (DiD) approach that subsumes many of the recent solutions proposed in the literature to address possible biases arising from negative weighting. We combine LPs with a flexible “clean control” condition to define appropriate sets of treated and control units. Our proposed LP‐DiD estimator can be implemented with various weighting and normalization schemes for different target est…

  • The Neoclassical Theory of Aggregate Investment and its Criticisms

    Open AccessDaniele GirardiARTICLEReview of Political Economy2025References: 13

    This paper surveys the neoclassical theory of aggregate investment and its criticisms. We identify four main strands in neoclassical investment theory: (i) the traditional Wicksellian model; (ii) the Fisherian ‘array-of-opportunities’ approach; (iii) the Jorgensonian model; (iv) the now prevailing adjustment cost models. We summarize each approach, discuss the main conceptual issues, and highlight similarities and differences between them. We als…

  • Expectations, authority and divergent market transitions

    Open AccessSusanne A Wengle, Daniele Girardi et al.ARTICLEWorld Development2025References: 12

    Over 35 countries have embarked on transitions from planned to market economies over the last forty years, with widely divergent outcomes and momentous political, institutional, and economic consequences. We argue that social expectations played a critical but underappreciated role in shaping transition outcomes. We present a formal model of market transition as an assurance game with two possible self-enforcing equilibria, economic collapse or s…

  • Long-run Effective Demand in the US Economy: An Empirical Test of the Sraffian Supermultiplier Model

    Daniele Girardi, Riccardo PariboniARTICLEReview of Political Economy2016Cited by: 11References: 9

    The Sraffian supermultiplier is a model of demand-led growth that stresses the importance of the autonomous components of aggregate demand (exports, public spending and autonomous consumption). This article tests empirically some major implications of the model employing macroeconomic data for the United States. In particular, we study the long-run relation between autonomous demand and output through cointegration analysis. The results suggest t…
