I am interested in topics in political economy of development, institutions and economic geography, and I use a combination of theory and applied microeconometrics to work on these topics.

Work in progress
"The Dawn of Inequality" (with Mattia Bertazzini and Leander Heldring)
"On Strategic Civilian Targeting in Civil War" (with Sushant Banjara)
"Putting Simplicity Back into New Economic Geography"
