PhD candidate at @UnivAntilles — Exploring how disasters shape economies. Economist & econometrician in the making. Views are my own.carlrippon.github.ioJoined November 2020
The economy that never recovers looks just like the one that's healing. That's why we keep believing in the rebound.
Final post in a three-part series on why disaster economics should start in the Caribbean.

After a disaster, GDP can rise. Not just hold steady: rise.
It measures flows, not stocks. So destruction goes uncounted while reconstruction shows up as growth.
New post on why that hides who really pays.

We're told economies bounce back after a disaster.
What if that weren't entirely true?
I’m starting a blog to explain my research in plain language, because research is meant to be shared.

Presented my paper « Inflation Drivers: A Tale of the French Overseas Economies » at the ASSET 2025 Conference in Rabat 🇲🇦.
The paper explores how cyclones, supply chain disruptions and local fiscal shocks shape inflation dynamics in small island economies.
Normally, it's:
1) write a paper & submit
3) get reviews (~3 months)
4) revise paper & resubmit
5) wait for response (~3 months)
...what if we could simulate this process in minutes?
Could we fix issues?
Anticipate misconceptions?
Get ideas for new analyses/experiments?
