Nowcasting well-being in societies: at the crossroads of data science and complex systems
Data-driven modeling and social mining has the potential of yielding a planetary nervous system capable of supporting the computation, monitoring and nowcasting of new indices of social well-being, a novel compass long-awaited by decision-makers and citizens, well beyond the limitations of the gross national product (GDP) per capita. The key scientific challenge is to make the different dimensions of social well-being globally measurable in real-time: besides material living standards (income, consumption and wealth), it is important to consider many other factors, such as health, education, personal activities including work, political voice and governance, social connections and relationships, environment, security. We discuss how the availability of big data sources, such as mobile phone data, retail transaction records, web search records, social media texts, social network data, together with novel social mining methods powered by network science and complex system modeling, are paving new avenues to quantify the human and social capital in our societies, and therefore to monitor and nowcast the various facets of well-being.

Relocation of the Rich: Migration in Response to Top Tax Rate Changes from Spanish Reforms
écrit avec David Agrawal (University of Kentucky)
We quantify the importance of mobility as a response to top tax rate changes in a country where migration is relatively low. A recent Spanish tax reform granted states the authority to set income tax rates for the first time. This Spanish tax reform resulted in substantial tax differences across states for high-income tax payers.
To study the effect of these tax changes, we use individual-level information from Social Security records over a period of one decade. The reform increases the probability of moving. In addition, conditional on moving, taxes have a significant effect on the location choice. A one percent increase in the net of tax rate for a region relative to others increases the probability of moving to that region by 1.7 percentage points.

Unemployment Insurance Take-up and Cash-on-Hand
écrit avec Andreas Kettemann (University of Zürich)
A large fraction of the eligible workers does not claim for unemployment benefits. The existing literature, focusing on the determinants of the take-up (TU), has shown that it is sensitive to both the costs and the benefits of claiming. This paper shows that variation in TU behaviors can be used to determine the value of unemployment insurance among workers. Using Austrian data, we first estimate how eligibility for severance payments and to extended unemployment benefits affect the TU behaviors. Using a simple model, we show that these estimates can be used to compute bounds on a money metric of the value of the unemployment insurance among workers. Our results point towards a large dispersion of this value. Among the claimants the benefits are substantial since we get a lower bound around two monthly wages. On the contrary, we estimate that if we would have forced the non-claimants to collect benefits, they would have loss an equivalent of around three monthly wages in utility.

State Capacity and Public Goods: Institutional Change, Human Capital, and Growth in Early Modern Germany
écrit avec Ralf R. Meisenzahl (Federal Reserve Board)
What are the origins and consequences of the state as a provider of public goods? We
study institutional changes that increased state capacity and public goods provision in
German cities during the 1500s, including the establishment of mass public education.
We document that cities that institutionalized public goods provision in the 1500s
subsequently began to differentially produce and attract upper tail human capital
and grew to be significantly larger in the long-run. Institutional change occurred
where ideological competition introduced by the Protestant Reformation interacted
with local politics. We study plague outbreaks that shifted local politics in a narrow
time period as a source of exogenous variation in institutions, and find support for a
causal interpretation of the relationship between institutional change, human capital,
and growth.

Phishing for phools - Dynamic consistency under non-classical uncertainty
écrit avec V.I. Danilov and V. Vergopoulos
In this paper we develop an expected utility theory in the context of non-classical(quantum) uncertainty. We replace the classical state space with a Hilbert space which allows introducing the concept of quantum lottery. Within that framework we formulate sufficient and necessary axioms in terms of choice behavior and establish a representation theorem. We show that demanding the consistency of choice behavior conditional on new information is equivalent with the von Neuman-Luder postulate applied to beliefs. As a consequent we find that rational choice behavior can be consistent with non-commutativity in updating. Finally, we discuss the value of our results for behavioral economics

Do Pollution Offsets Offset Pollution? Evidence from the Clean Development Mechanism in India
We provide the first large-scale empirical evaluation of the additionality of the Kyoto Protocol’s Clean Development Mechanism, the largest carbon emissions offset mechanism in the world, based on the universe of wind power projects implemented in India during the period 1993-2013. We deal with the self-selection of project developers into the CDM by comparing CDM projects with non-CDM projects, which are by definition not additional. We find strong evidence that the majority of CDM projects are not additional, suggesting that a large share of CDM carbon credits does not represent real emission reductions. Furthermore, the more profitable projects are, the more likely they are to receive carbon credits. Hence, the CDM is doing the opposite of its objective function, i.e. supporting projects that would have existed anyway rather than inframarginal projects.
