Market definition holds significant importance in antitrust cases, yet achieving consensus on the correct approach remains elusive. As a result, analysts routinely entertain multiple market definitions to ensure the resilience of their…
This paper investigates the causal impact of the parental environment on the student's academic performance in mathematics, literature and English (as a foreign language), using a new database covering all children aged 8 to 15 of the…
This paper examines the short- and long-term effects of immigrant assimilation policies in Brazil after the Mass Migration period. It focuses on the Nationalization Campaign, launched amid rising anti-immigrant sentiment during the Great…
