title: The Failure of Cotton Imperialism in Africa: Seasonal Constraints and Contrasting Outcomes in French West Africa and British Uganda
title: Archival Version

description: This is the replication package for the article "The Failure of Cotton Imperialism in Africa: Seasonal Constraints and Contrasting Outcomes in French West Africa and British Uganda."<br><br>Abstract: <span>Cash-crop diffusion in colonial Africa was uneven
and defied colonizers’ expectations and efforts, especially for cotton. This
study investigates how agricultural seasonality affected African farmers’ cotton
adoption, circa 1900–1960. A contrast
between British Uganda and the interior of French West Africa demonstrates that
a short rainy season and the resulting short farming cycles generated seasonal
labor bottlenecks and food security concerns, limiting cotton output. Agricultural
seasonality also shaped colonial coercion, investment, and African income-earning
strategies. A labor productivity breakthrough in post-colonial Francophone West
Africa mitigated the seasonality constraint, facilitating impressive cotton production
post-1960.</span>

title: Breaking barriers in women’s pelvic health: claims-based economic analysis and healthcare utilization of an AI care program compared to usual care

description: To compare healthcare utilization and spending among women enrolled in an employer-sponsored, artificial intelligence (AI) structured pelvic care program with those receiving usual in-person care for pelvic floor dysfunction (PFD) in routine clinical settings. This retrospective payor-perspective economic evaluation used exact and propensity score-matched cohorts derived from a third-party U.S. nationwide claims database from July 2022 to May 2025. Eligible participants were adult females with a pelvic-related condition, at least 24 months of continuous health-insurance coverage, and a minimum of one pelvic claim in the prior year. Intervention group (IG) comprised women who participated in the AI pelvic care program (consisting of biofeedback-mediated pelvic floor muscle training asynchronously monitored by a physical therapist specialized in pelvic health). Comparator group (CG) included women who sought a medical or physical therapy evaluation visit for PFD. Self-reported clinical outcomes available for the IG were assessed using latent-basis growth analysis. The matched cohort included 602 women (301 per group). Relative to CG, IG patients had substantially lower healthcare spending over 12 months, with mean gross per-person pelvic-related savings of $3,082.4 (95% CI $1,270.2 to $4,894.7, <i>p</i>&lt;.001). Savings were primarily associated with fewer surgical procedures (per-person difference of $2,534.2; 95% CI $831.2 to $4,237.2, <i>p</i>=.004), with differences also noted in medical office visits and imaging utilization. IG participants demonstrated significant improvements in pelvic floor symptom burden, work productivity, and mental health. Claims-based analyses cannot exclude unmeasured confounding, misclassification, or selection bias. The one-year follow-up limits assessment of long-term economic impact. Participation in this AI pelvic care program was associated with markedly lower healthcare utilization and spending compared with usual care, largely linked to fewer surgical interventions. These findings highlight the potential of accessible, guideline-concordant AI pelvic care to lessen healthcare spending associated with PFD and inform payor-oriented care delivery models.

title: Replication: Malaria, Race, and Inequality: Evidence from the Early 1900s U.S. South
title: Archival Version

description: <div>This study investigates the impact of malaria eradication programs on Black-white economic disparities in the early 1900s U.S. South. Malaria eradication was widespread and improved health across races. Yet, only white men experienced economic benefits. Using matched census records, we find that increased exposure to the program was associated with higher schooling attainment and income for whites but not for Blacks. Blacks exposed to malaria eradication were more likely to be farm laborers, and both Blacks and whites were more likely to migrate out of state. Our findings suggest that malaria eradication, a broadly applied intervention, widened racial gaps.</div>

title: Replication: Did the colonial mita cause a population collapse? What current surnames reveal in Peru
title: Archival Version

description: This is the
replication package for our paper titled "Did the colonial <i>mita</i> cause a
population collapse? What current surnames reveal in Peru". We present
quantitative evidence that the <i>mita </i>introduced by the Spanish crown in 1573
caused

the
decimation of the native-born male population. The mass baptisms after the
conquest of Peru in 1532 resulted in the assignation of surnames for the first
time. We argue that past mortality displacement and mass out-migration were
responsible for differences in the surnames observed in <i>mita </i>and non-<i>mita
</i>districts today. Using a regression discontinuity and data from the Peruvian Electoral
Roll of 2011, we find that <i>mita </i>districts have 47 log points fewer surnames
than non-<i>mita </i>districts, 65 log points fewer surnames that are present in only one district, and 93 log points fewer surnames that are solely present
in one area (<i>mita</i> or non-<i>mita</i>).

title: The Demographic Effects of Colonialism: Forced Labor and Mortality in Java, 1834-1879
title: Archival Version

description: We investigate the demographic effects of forced labor
under an extractive colonial regime: the Cultivation System in
nineteenth-century Java. Our panel analyses show that labor demands are
strongly associated with mortality rates, likely resulting from malnourishment and
unhygienic conditions on plantations and the spread of infectious disease. An
instrumental variable approach, using international market prices for coffee
and sugar to predict labor demands, addresses potential endogeneity concerns. Our
estimates suggest that without the abolition of the Cultivation System average
overall mortality in Java would have been between (roughly) 10 and 30 percent
higher by the late 1870s.

title: China GDP: Some Corrections
title: Archival Version

description: Historical GDP estimates for China by Broadberry, Guan, and Li are problematic because of an implausible series for government expenditure. Revised estimates reduce GDP per capita, mainly during the Ming, by up to a third. Two peaks in income now stand out: the Song efflorescence and the years around 1700. If the latter peak is real, comparisons of the Yangzi delta with leading European countries show a Great Crossing in the middle ages, a Great Convergence in the seventeenth century, and a Great Divergence in the eighteenth. Otherwise, the Great Divergence may date from the sixteenth century.
