I like reading #introduction posts even from those I know, so here's mine:

I'm a researcher at the French CNRS. I study the applied practices of economists in the past 70 years or so, across fields (macro, urban, public, welfare etc), topics, methods & policy advice

I think that it is very important for economists & public at large to understand the history of their concepts, tools & models, so I try to post relevant research, archival nuggets & thread some stories

found a lot of historians through hashtags, so follow-up #introduction

I'm currently wrapping-up a series of research projects on the history of #macroeconomics (in #centralbanks, on heterogeneity, tractability, computation)

I'm now turning to #microeconomics (history of taxation & welfare across fields is my angle for the next year)

And I'm writing a textbook on the #history of #economics from 1940

@undercoverhistorian You forgot the obligatory #historyofecon != #econhist clarification!

@jamesfeigenbaum @undercoverhistorian In fairness the confusion is usually the other way around
