• The Separation and Reunification of Germany: Rethinking a Natural Experiment Interpretation of the Enduring Effects of Communism: We show in three steps that the populations in East and West Germany were far from being randomly selected treatment and control groups. First, the later border is already visible in many socio-economic characteristics in pre-World War II data. Second, World War II and the subsequent occupying forces affected East and West differently. Third, a selective fifth of the population fled from East to West Germany before the building of the Wall in 1961.

Games

• Just Cause 4, you know, just 'cause. It's so hard to find a relaxing, non-stressful game. I started playing Meeple Station but that's also quite stressful. Then I thought about Planet Coaster, and that would've been nice, but that doesn't fit into a 30min or 60min time window. So, senseless violence with Rico Rodriguez it is. Quite sad, really. Oh, and JC4 is just more of the same, silly story, silly missions, silly weapons, but the landscape and the flying-around is still very excellent.
