Sharing the Burden: The Impacts of Pharmacy Sector Reforms on the Labor Market for Pharmacists in Portugal
In the depths of the 2010 financial crisis the Portuguese government enacted a series of reforms in its prescription drug reimbursement system. Over the next three years value added per pharmacist in retail pharmacies fell by a third, reflecting a rise in generic substitution and reductions in the markups allowed for prescription drugs.

Sharing the Burden: The Impacts of Pharmacy Sector Reforms on the Labor Market for Pharmacists in Portugal
How do labor markets respond to large negative shocks? The literatures on deregulation (e.g., Rose 1987; Hendricks 1994) and plant closings (Jacobson et al. 1993; Schmieder et al. 2023) suggest that large negative shocks can have lasting effects on workers' wages. Studies of geographically concentrated demand shocks (Yagan 2019) and trade-induced shocks (Autor et al. 2014; Yi et al. 2024) find persistent impacts on exposed workers.

How a Gifted Program Impacts Disadvantaged Students
Public debate over gifted education tends to focus on fairness. Who gets to be called “gifted” and what sort of extras do they receive? Nationwide, more than 12 percent of Asian students and almost 8 percent of white students are enrolled in gifted programs compared to 3 percent of Black students and 4 percent of Hispanic students—differences that have prompted several large districts to rethink their gifted offerings.
SAS veterans threaten court action to protect themselves from Troubles Bill
THE Special Air Service Regimental Association is initiating the first step in legal action against the Government over Labour’s Northern Ireland Troubles Bill. It has sent Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn a formal letter before action. It warned that, if passed in its current form, the legislation ‘will be subject to challenge’ and confirmed it intends to submit detailed evidence to the Joint Committee on Human Rights.

How “gifted education” can be a game changer for disadvantaged boys
This is a summary of our working paper, forthcoming in the Journal of Political Economy. You can read the full paper at https://www.nber.org/papers/w33282. Across the United States, boys are significantly less likely than girls to enroll in college. This problem is particularly acute among disadvantaged students. Among low-income students with strong academic abilities, we find that boys are much less likely than girls to attend college.
Resetting relationships with the EU is madness – how you can have your say - The Conservative Woman Original
THE EU democratic deficit was understood by 17.4million UK voters who told our government to leave. Our government have not only failed to implement that democratic decision but are now taking the UK back under EU Third State rules without insisting that the EU fix their fundamental democratic shortcomings. The EU powers recognise their democratic deficit, talk about it but do nothing to put their house in order.

Why Do Labor Unions Advocate for Minimum Wage Increases?
In recent years, historically high minimum wages have received support through advocacy by labor unions. In the U.S. context, this took place in substantial part through labor unions’ involvement in the “Fight for $15” movement.1 In this section, we discuss the data sources used in our analysis. The policy variation of interest involves minimum wage changes. The primary outcome of interest is union membership.
What Is Math Tracking, and Who Does It Affect?
Educators and policy experts gathered at the Education Writers Association’s 2024 Math Seminar last October to discuss a prevalent issue in education: the practice of tracking students into remedial or advanced math pathways. The panel titled,“Track or Trap? The Impact of Math Placement on Student Achievement” explored the effects of tracking policies on equity and student outcomes.

School Equalization in the Shadow of Jim Crow: Causes and Consequences of Resource Disparity in Mississippi circa 1940
A school finance equalization program established in Mississippi in 1920 failed to help many of the state's Black students – an outcome that was typical in the segregated U.S. South (Horace Mann Bond, 1934). In majority-Black school districts, local decision-makers overwhelmingly favored white schools when allotting funds from the state's preexisting per capita fund, and the resulting high expenditures on white students rendered these districts ineligible for the equalization program.

Not my war and not my fight
A POLL for GB News suggested that only 14 per cent of those aged between 18 and 24 would volunteer to fight in a ‘necessary war’. It suggests that Generation Z think the recent grim predictions of conflict have nothing to do with them. ‘Not my war and not my fight’ was the message. This attitude should not surprise us. Generation Z have had politically correct schooling, endured Project Fear, been weaned on the mobile phone and primed to the influence of social media as the tool of power.
Lower-rated publications do lower academics’ judgments of publication lists: Evidence from a survey experiment of economists
Judgments of individual economists’ contributions to the scientific literature, and their professional reputations, are heavily influenced by not just the number of publications, but the perceived quality of the journals in which their publications appear.
Is Shapps softening us up for a Global Defence Reset?
LAST week’s dire warnings from Defence Secretary Grant Shapps prompt the question of whether this is another Project Fear in the making and a dangerous ploy to condition us to accept a Global Defence Reset.

Mejora la probabilidad de que las academias de ciencia reconozcan el trabajo de las investigadoras
¿Han recibido las investigadoras los mismos reconocimientos y premios que sus colegas masculinos? ¿Y actualmente? Se trata de una cuestión crítica y apropiada teniendo en cuenta los casos de discriminación ocurridos tanto en las academias como fuera de ellas, así como para avanzar hacia la igualdad de género. La baja presencia de mujeres en la ciencia ha sido preocupante durante los últimos años.
Zientzia-akademiek emakumezko ikertzaileen lana aintzatesteko probabilitatea hobetu da

Azken 20 urteetan, emakumezkoek lehentasuna izan dute bi akademia horietan sartzeko, argitalpen- eta aipamen-historial beretsuko gizonezkoekin alderatuta.

Nato chief plots with EU Rejoiners
A SECRET two-day cross-party meeting chaired by Lord (Peter) Mandelson and attended by politicians who wish to rejoin the EU and at least one senior Nato official has been revealed. Facts4eu reports: ‘Over Thursday and Friday (9th and 10th Feb 2023) a secret, residential meeting took place at one of England’s finest stately homes in Oxfordshire. The subject was how to move the UK closer to the EU and it was run by senior Rejoiners.
The EU threats to our defence sovereignty are back
PERMANENT Structured Cooperation (PESCO) is just one pillar that supports the EU ambitions to take control of a European Defence Union that gives effect to the EU’s Global Strategy on Foreign and Security policy. Had the original 2018 May Government’s exit and future partnership deals with the EU gone through it would have had the effect of entangling and subverting the UK’s defence policy and future actions to accord with these EU defence ambitions.

UK’s stake in an EU military – despite Brexit - The Conservative Woman
JAMES Heapey MP, Minister for the Armed Forces, gave the following ‘reassurance’ to me in July after I had raised my concerns with my MP over the ‘surrender’ of UK sovereignty over Defence to the EU’s new Defence and Foreign policy ambitions (my emphasis): ‘I would like to reassure your constituent that having left the EU the UK continues to retain full sovereign control over its defence, decision-making and the deployment of its Armed Forces and their equipment.
Mujeres en las sociedades científicas, una evolución positiva
Desde sus comienzos académicos, Nagore Iriberri, profesora e investigadora de Economía de la Facultad de Economía y Empresa de la UPV/EHU, asistía a seminarios, donde no veía demasiadas mujeres. Esa falta de referentes femeninos le hizo preguntarse: ¿Qué ocurre en esta profesión con las mujeres?

Quote e discriminazione positiva, le ricette per cancellare i divari
