David Card抯 research activities over the past year can be divided into several areas. In the immigration area, he completed a joint paper that compares the U.S. born adult children of immigrants in the mid-1990s with similar 搒econd generation?individuals in 1940 and 1970. He has also continued to work on the issue of labor market competition between immigrants and natives, and plans to write a paper on the mobility responses of native workers to immigrant inflows. In the education area, he examined the effects of the Canadian 揋.I. Bill??a college subsidy program that was offered to Canadian veterans after World War II. In a chapter in the forthcoming Handbook of Economics, Professor Card presents a review of recent research on the payoffs to education, and proposes a series of economic models that are useful in interpreting and synthesizing this research. Other areas of investigation include the responses of youth in Canada and the United States to changes in labor market conditions; the effects of the 1992 rise in the New Jersey minimum wage on employment in the fast food industry in the state; and changes in the unemployment insurance system on the duration of unemployment insurance claims.

说得好。

不过卡尼曼似乎没获过克奖吧？

关于诺奖转向是个很重要的判断，但是经验地看，克奖和诺奖的lag一般在25年左右，McFadden也不例外。

如果克奖是诺奖的waiting list的话，嗷嗷待哺的还有公共经济学的Feldstein，计量的Hausman，以及Grossman和Kreps两位超级大牛，其中K的机率还是蛮大的。

另一个不容忽视的问题是，克奖似乎很少授给宏观领域。当然，这跟宏观的战国形势也有关系。

喂，老兄，那是给最顶尖的美国青年经济学家的奖好不好？

即使中国设立自己的克拉克奖，人大人要拿也颇有一番难度了。

所以林毅夫跟克拉克奖没有关系，跟人大就更没有关系了。他是政协的。
