Why on a schedule

The NBER working paper series is where a great deal of economics appears first, months before journal publication, and it arrives at a pace that is easy to fall behind on and awkward to catch up with — a long list of PDFs, each one a decision about whether to open it.

Delivered weekly it becomes something else: one issue with every new paper, title and abstract, that you read through once and finish. The papers worth the full PDF announce themselves in the abstract.

What arrives

Title, authors and the full abstract for every new working paper, with a link to the paper page.
