Not mentioned: the FT’s own incessant reporting on presumed exodus threats from the non-dom changes
Data suggests fears of UK ‘non-dom’ exodus overblown

Det her er kun en "usædvanlig" trio, hvis man ikke har læst Magteliten, ellers er det en helt aldeles sædvanlig trio (cc @chellersgaard.bsky.social)
An academic’s to do list: - Complete reviews x 2 - Draft R&R memo - Submit grant application for internal budgeting - Reorganize life - Grade exam papers
Fin politisk-økonomi rundtur her med en hovedrolle til Jesper Tynell’s fremragende bog ‘Af hensyn til erhvervslivet’
Brian Mikkelsen er sikkert en fin fyr, men han repræsenterer
Kapitalismen er gået amok og som allerede aristokraten Aristoteles vidste, så er demokrati og oligarki to uforenelige styreformer. I førstnævnte regerer folket ud fra et ideal om det fælles bedste; i

Going to start posting more LinkedIn-style aspirational stuff over here. Ex.: I missed my commuter train this morning. Here’s what it taught me about effectively managing Reviewer 2:
En, øhm, skal vi sige noget alternativ skattely-liste fra de gode folk på BT's sportsredaktion
Re-upping in light of recent events:
Rasmus Corlin Christensen@phdskat.org · 2mo agoI hate to be the bearer of bad news but
lots of great things about academia but it systematically lacks the depth of quality sports banter with your colleagues and peers you might get elsewhere (there i said it)
lauren@lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com · 4w agoi've been trying to figure out exactly why the world cup is making all of bluesky insane and i thinj it's a confluence of our sports posters working territory outside their usual lane and our politics posters being deeply, deeply underwater
Small potatoes in the bigger scheme but people are often confused when they hear Danish unis deny more and more applicants each year - not because of status or capacity or whatnot, simply because successive governments decide they want fewer university-educated citizens.
Record numbers apply to CBS – but fewer will get in
Application deadline: 7463 applied for a bachelor programme at CBS as their first priority, making interest in studying at the Nordic region’s largest business school historically high. However, secto...

Back from @sasemeeting.bsky.social in Bordeaux, which was as usual an absolutely banger of a conference. See you all next year in Glasgow!
What climate fiction movie is this again? Denmark hit highest ever temperature (37C) and had golf ball-sized hails today.
Also quite funny that Trump is like "this is *imminent*!" when EU members have been unable to agree on anything digital tax-related for literally a decade (and they're no closer!), meanwhile a steady trickle of unilateral initiatives have proliferated.
Rasmus Corlin Christensen@phdskat.org · last mo.Ahem.
It is worth saying again - again! - about the section 301 bluster that there are already a raft of s301 investigations completed, just lying around, waiting for action, on exactly European digital taxes *from Trump's first term*
For those who lived through the global financial crisis years, the European North-South switcheroo on so many fronts has truly been a thing to behold
Edward Luce@edwardluce.bsky.social · last mo.Starmer was not good at his job though his intentions were decent. Britain's evolution into Italian-style musical chairs is almost as striking as Italy's British-style continuity and pragmatism.
Is 34 slides too much for a 12-minute talk? Asking for a friend..
How does rampant #assetisation and variation in #assetmanagement affect social conflicts? Our special issue co-edited with @theobourgeron.bsky.social in New Political Economy proposes a framework to analyse such asset struggles and brings together 7 papers with key empirical studies. 🧵
Another day of perusing the latest research from various journals and.. So. Many. Conceptual-only. Interventions.
Rasmus Corlin Christensen@phdskat.org · 3mo agoYet to see the predicted AI-induced increase in the value of rich qualitative work materialise. All I’m seeing is another new conceptual-only intervention and another new complex quant paper and another and another
🧵(1/12) On Tuesday, @hamiltonproject.org released my proposal on reforming US international tax. I suggest raising corporate rates for the biggest profit taxpayers, and strengthening US international tax rules to better align with the large potential of international efforts.
The future of US international corporate tax reform - The Hamilton Project
Kimberly Clausing proposes to strengthen and reform U.S. corporate taxation while better aligning U.S. corporate tax policy efforts with the potential of international collective action.

The FT printed my letter today on digital taxes, wherein I write that distributive conflict may be a more useful lens than collective action problems for understanding the last decade of OECD-led cooperation failures.
Good letter. I agree that it’s not a collective action problem. It’s a USA problem. DST only becomes truly necessary because the US broke the pillar I/II reforms. It‘s not just that the US is a bully, it’s that its bullying is incoherent.
