Our new paper investigating the macroeconomic effects of the Irish bank strike in 1966. In contrast to the existing narrative, we find that the disruption was substantial in the cheque republic :) quceh.org.uk/uploads/1/0/5/…

New working paper announcement! Ever wondered why Irish is such an endangered language? Joint work with Alan Fernihough and Eoin McLaughlin (eoinaldo) crunches the numbers. We argue language loss was driven by endogenous demand for English, not exogenous policy imposition.

A new working paper constructing Quarterly GDP for Ireland since 1950 (from Rebecca Stuart and I). We join these with the first official numbers (1995). The 50s + 80s look even worse, and the 90s show up as a distinctive break after a rocky start. quceh.org.uk/uploads/1/0/5/…
