Propensity score matching without conditional independence assumption - with an application to the gender wage gap in the UK
revised version of Discussion paper 2002-08#### Propensity score matching is frequently used for estimating average treatment effects.

The Impact of Economic Sanctions on South African Exports
In the mid-1980s many nations imposed sanctions on South African exports, most of which were subsequently removed during 1991-3. I estimate the effect of eight industrialized economies' sanctions on their imports from South Africa. Outliers are found to strongly influence the parameter estimates. Failure to take account of them leads to the conclusion that sanctions by the (then…

‘Thou art a scholar, speak to it' - On Spaces of Speech : A Script
This article argues, based on the work of Bakhtin and de Certeau, that there is no aesthetics without politics and that all academic discourse and practices are enacted through aesthetic forms with inherently political and ethical effects.
