Collective Bargaining and Monopsony: The Regulation of Noncompete Agreements in France
ABSTRACT Can collective bargaining mitigate monopsony power? This paper studies the extent to which collective agreements regulating employee noncompete clauses affect firm‐level markdowns in French manufacturing. Using a staggered difference‐in‐differences design, we find that such regulation reduces markdowns by 1.3%–2.2% on average.

The Origins of Ploem's Filter Cube: A Pandora's Box
Abstract Ploem's filter cube, central to modern epifluorescence microscopy, integrates three matched optical components: an excitation filter, an emission filter, and a dichroic mirror. Together, these elements enable the separation of excitation and emission light paths, producing high‐contrast fluorescence images.

This paper histologically analyzed incremental markings in dental enamel of red fox and grey wolf. Our results demonstrate that previous studies have misidentified these markings, which led to miscalculation of dental growth parameters. Abstract The present study analyzed incremental markings in the enamel of eight mandibular first molars (M1) of red ...

Longevity, Health, and Housing Risk Management in Retirement
ABSTRACT Annuities, long‐term care insurance, and reverse mortgages remain puzzlingly unpopular to manage post‐retirement longevity, health, and housing price risks. We use a flexible life‐cycle model structurally estimated with a unique stated‐preference survey experiment of Canadian households to understand why. Key factors include high risk aversion,

A Unified Approach to Estimating Production Functions: Proxy Variables and Dynamic Panel Data
ABSTRACT We propose a new approach to production function estimation that integrates the strengths of the proxy‐variable (PV) and dynamic panel data (DPD) methods. Our framework augments the set of instruments for the level equation in Blundell and Bond [8] with a Berkson‐type instrument motivated by economic theory, following Olley and Pakes [28 ...
