Skills (12)

• wber-identification

  Use when the causal identification argument is the bottleneck for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript — RCT/program evaluation, DiD/event study around a reform, regression discontinuity, or IV in a developing-country setting. Stress-tests the data-to-estimate mapping AND the external-

• wber-literature-positioning

  Use when staking a contribution against the development-economics frontier for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript, and ruling out its sibling journals (JDE, World Development, Economic Development and Cultural Change, the Research Observer). Sharpens the gap and the boundary claims;

• wber-rebuttal

  Use when a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) decision letter has arrived (R&R or reject-with-encouragement) and you need the response-letter strategy — triaging editor vs. referee asks, sequencing new analysis, and writing point-by-point replies for the identification and policy referee archetyp

• wber-referee-strategy

  Use when anticipating referee and editor objections before submitting to The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) — pre-empting the predictable development-economics pushbacks (external validity, identification, data quality, policy relevance) and writing the cover letter. Plans defenses; it does not r

• wber-replication-package

  Use when assembling the data and code replication package for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript to meet WBER's condition-of-publication data/code release, the data availability statement with a DOI repository link, and the realities of restricted developing-country data. Builds the

• wber-robustness

  Use when results for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript may be sensitive to specification, sample, measurement, or inference choices — and you need a threat-organized robustness plan rather than an appendix dump. Organizes checks by identifying threat and by data-quality risks specif

• wber-submission

  Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) via the ScholarOne ManuscriptCentral portal — the 40-page total cap, single-anonymized title page, abstract/JEL, data availability statement with DOI, and house format. Final checks; it does not draft conte

• wber-tables-figures

  Use when building the exhibits for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript so they read cleanly for a mixed economist + policymaker audience, fit the 40-page cap, and carry the policy magnitude. Designs and audits tables/figures; it does not run the analysis or write the prose.

• wber-theory-model

  Use when a development model is needed to interpret an empirical result or to run a policy counterfactual for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript, or when deciding whether a formal model is needed at all. Disciplines the model-to-data link and the counterfactual; it does not run estim

• wber-topic-selection

  Use when deciding whether a development-economics question fits The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) — and how to frame it so both halves of the WBER bar (credible empirics AND policy relevance) are visible. Locks the question and outlet; it does not run the analysis or write the prose.

• wber-workflow

  Use when deciding which wber-* sub-skill to invoke next, or when sequencing manuscript work from topic selection through rebuttal for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) submission. Routes — it does not replace — the specialized skills.

• wber-writing-style

  Use when the prose for a The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) manuscript buries the development-policy contribution — abstract, introduction, and the bridge from estimate to policy lesson. Sharpens the writing for a mixed economist + policymaker audience; it does not run analysis or build exhibits.
