Productivity dispersion and persistence in European agriculture
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract Improving and maintaining agricultural productivity, which is pivotal to deliver private and public goods, is challenged by increasingly uncertain market and environmental conditions. Understanding differences in productivity among farms and its persistence over time helps assess the vulnerability of agricultural production to these external ...

Not by Selection Alone: Expanding the Scope of Gene‐Culture Coevolution
Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, Volume 34, Issue 3, September 2025.ABSTRACT Gene‐culture coevolution (GCC)—an ambitious synthesis of biological and social sciences is often used to explain the evolution of key human traits. Despite the framework's broad conceptual appeal however, empirical evidence is often perceived as limited to a few key examples like lactase persistence.
