Bad Economics Research Ideas
Here is a list of bad economics research ideas I have from brain-fuzz and drawing from daily inspirations from random encounters of papers: they are often challenging, undesirable, and difficult to research but nonetheless interesting. If you are an economics or economic history researcher: you would be more than welcome to take look!
If you spot potential in any of these ideas - perhaps you know of relevant datasets, can suggest improved empirical strategies, or see ways to make them more feasible - I'd love to hear from you. I'm also open to potential collaboration. Feel free to reach out at sihao.feng@stcatz.ox.ac.uk
