Biographic sketch(in case you need a paragraph describing me) "David de la Croix (born 1964, PhD 1992) is Professor of Economics at UCLouvain (Belgium) and research fellow at CEPR. He has taught on a visiting basis at UCLA, Copenhagen, Aix-Marseille, Nanterre, Capetown, Săo Paulo, Taipei, Rostock, NYU Abu Dhabi and Poznań. He is the instigator and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Demographic Economics, published by Cambridge University Press, and was associate editor for the Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, the Journal of Development Economics, and the Journal of Public Economic Theory. His research interests cover demographic economics, human capital and growth with a long-run historical perspective, and conflicts between generations. He is mostly interested in understanding households’ incentives in the present and in the past. Working with 57 co-authors, he has published a number of research articles (including in journals such as the American Economic Review, the Quarterly Journal of Economics, and Review of Economic Studies), and a treatise on Economic Growth co-authored with Philippe Michel. He has also written a number of policy briefs addressed to a more general audience. And he has advised 21 doctoral dissertations. In 2020, he received an ERC Advanced Grant to develop a new database of members of European universities and academies and analyze whether these scholars and literati did trigger the rise of the West through the humanistic, scientific, and industrial revolutions."
