This article describes basic facts regarding the Black-White test score gap over the first four years of school.

Over the first four years of school, however, Blacks lose substantial ground relative to…

We estimate the causal effect of prison conditions on recidivism rates by exploiting a discontinuity in the assignment of federal prisoners to security levels. Inmates housed in higher security levels are no less likely to recidivate than those housed in minimum security; if anything, our estimates suggest that harsher prison conditions lead to more post-release…

Yet not all financial markets failed because of adverse conditions. Using China's initial stock market development as a case study, this article suggests that administrative governance can substitute for formal legal governance. At the…

Using state-level panel data covering the period 1950--90, we demonstrate that the death rate among prisoners (the best available proxy…
