Ines Viela and her co-authors published the paper, “Does Information Break the Political Resource Curse? Experimental Evidence from Mozambique” in the American Economic Review. Natural resources can have a negative impact on the economy through corruption and civil conflict. Her work tests whether information can counteract the political resource curse by implementing a large-scale field experiment following the dissemination of information about a substantial natural gas discovery in Mozambique. 

Evan Piermont published his work, “Unforeseen evidence” in the Journal of Economic Theory, proposing a normative updating rule, extended Bayesianism, for the incorporation of probabilistic information arising from the process of becoming more aware.

Alessio Sancetta’s paper, “Intraday Trades Profile Estimation: An Intensity Approach”, was published in the Journal of Financial Econometrics. More information about his proposed framework can be found here.
