SUMMARY:Jim Crow and Economic Development
DESCRIPTION:On March 17 at 3:15 PM in Posvar 4940\, the Center for Governance and Markets will host Jim Crow and Economic Development by Lukas Althoff in partnership with the Department of Economics. \nThis talk explores how Jim Crow laws\, while enriching white land-owning elites\, severely hindered overall Southern economic development\, and how the South only started to catch up with non-Southern economic development after the end of Jim Crow. \nLukas Althoff studies long-run economic progress and inequality\, using tools from applied microeconomics and economic history. He received his PhD from Princeton in 2023. After a Postdoctoral Fellowship at SIEPR\, he joined Stanford’s Department of Economics as an Assistant Professor in 2025. \nRegister here
