Dear Public Economics Colleagues,

      I am writing to call your attention to three
public-finance-related post-doctoral fellowships that the NBER will be
sponsoring during the 2022-23 academic year.

* Through the generosity of the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, we are
able to offer two fellowships for the study of long-term fiscal policy. 
Entitlement programs, deficits and debt policy, taxes and growth, the
political economy of fiscal policy, and similar issues are all within
scope.

* Through the generosity of Arnold Ventures, we are also fortunate to
offer a fellowship for research on inter-jurisdictional tax competition.
The use and impact of tax breaks for mobile corporate facilities, the
cross-national location of taxable income in response to tax rate
differentials, the use of tax incentives to attract entrepreneurs and
innovators, institutional approaches to managing tax competition, and
similar issues are all within scope.

      Each of these fellowships will allow the recipient to pursue his
or her research without other responsibilities for the coming academic
year while visiting the NBER's Cambridge office.  Further details on the
application process for these fellowships, which have a deadline of
December 9, 2021, may be found at

Thank you for calling these fellowships to the attention of students,
junior colleagues, or others whose research falls within these areas. 
Happy Thanksgiving!

Jim Poterba
