| Abstract: | The aim of this paper is to document the situation of women and the gender gaps in the economics profession across the full range of academic tiers, focused in Argentina. We conduct a comprehensive examination of the representation of women in Economics at various academic levels, from undergraduate programs to faculty and research positions. The analysis is based on several sources, including administrative national databases, administrative data coming from universities and other academic institutions, and microdata obtained from those institutions or through Web scraping. We assess gender differences in career trajectories, academic performance, access to research opportunities in the country and participation in relevant networks. By shedding light on the specific challenges faced by women in Economics in Argentina, we aim to inform policy recommendations and interventions that can promote gender equality and create a more inclusive and diverse economics profession. |

| Abstract: | A gravity model of citations for leading economics journals finds that papers with a Chinese first author receive on average 14 % fewer citations after controlling for quality and other attributes. U.S. institutional affiliation mitigates but does not remove the bias, which intensified during the COVID-19 period. |
