Making predictions in an eternally inflating universe [PDF]

Physical Review D, 1995
Eternally inflating universes can contain large thermalized regions with different values of the constants of Nature and with different density fluctuation spectra. To find the probability for a `typical' observer to detect a certain set of constants, or a certain fluctuation spectrum, one needs to compare the volumes occupied by different types of ...

Antinomies of Nativism: Understanding Decoloniality Theory's Affinities with the Global Far Right

Development and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the peculiar conjuncture of decolonial theory and contemporary far‐right ideology.

Do Banks Learn From Natural Disasters? Evidence From the U.S. Financial Sector

European Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines whether U.S. banks learn from natural disasters. We explore several potential channels of adjustment and find that exposed banks primarily respond by adopting precautionary capital measures.

Rational Expectations Fools' Bubbles

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a rational, Walrasian model of speculative bubbles inspired by the Kindleberger–Minsky view, which describes bubbles as wave‐like market processes.

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies.
