    Finally, it’s official! Though it’s already been a bliss to have @DrNathanNunn down the corridor this term, surreal almost. Welcome home! 🇨🇦

    I guess if @ubcprez has advertised it, it is now public information. I have been holding my breath for some weeks now to say how happy I am that @DrNathanNunn is joining us at @ubcVSE. I can’t think of anyone better to foster work here on development, pol economy and history

    The chapter for Colombia by @JavierMejiaC for #rootsofunderdevelopment is a great usage of modern methods applied to a classic economic history question: elite formation in the department of Antioquia
