Social Environment as a barrier to treatment and innovation adoption
Laura Lasio (JRC) and Laura Grigolon (Mannheim)
Abstract: Lung cancer is associated with smoking and characterized by low treatment rates and research funds. We estimate a model of treatment choice where patients internalize the negative social environment surrounding the disease, basing their treatment decision on the treatment decisions of their reference group. Identification rests on the exogenous variation in the treatment propensity of physicians.
The authors will present a combination of both published and work in progress research on organized crime.
Doomsday to Today: 1,000 Years of Spatial Inequality
Abstract
To what extent were modern within-state spatial inequalities established in the distant past? Using uniquely detailed data from the Doomsday Book, I show that areas of England that were 10% richer in 1086 remain on average between 1% and 2% richer today almost 1,000 years later.
