Doug Purvis Memorial Prize: David Card & Philip Oreopoulos
Congratulations to the 2020 winners, David Card (University of California, Berkeley) and Philip Oreopoulos (University of Toronto), editors of “Small Differences II: Public Policies in Canada and the United States”, a special issue of the Journal of Labour Economics.
"The issue of the Journal of Labor Economics edited by David Card and Philip Oreopoulos is a gift to Canadian public policy research. The editors put together a strong team of researchers who provide a wealth of information for the development of economic policy in the field of labour economics. Each paper alone might contend for the Purvis Prize, but taken together they are greater still – creating a comprehensive, interdependent and state-of-the-art volume on the Canadian policy landscape." - prize committee's comment
