I know, I know, development to toilet. But seriously. Possible candidates:
- Gautham Rao
- Ben Faber
- Melanie Morten
- BB LaCroix (duh)
Please add.
If you are going to count Faber, you might as well count Donaldson, who is on the same level with Atkin. I would call both trade economists, though.
i disagree. DD is amazing, but has really shifted to trade. DA is more development and has way more original and diverse work (experiment, structure, volatility, trade costs, innovation, labour ...)
