Organized by Patrick Hufschmidt and Tim Krieger (University of Freiburg), the workshop brings together researchers in empirical political economy to discuss current approaches to replication, robustness, reproducibility, and transparent research practices.
The program combines methodological discussions with presentations of ongoing empirical research, covering topics such as robustness analysis, data and code sharing, causal interpretation, replication debates, and AI-assisted replication.
