Welcome! I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Economics at McGill University in Montréal, QC, a Faculty Research Fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research, and a Research Fellow at RF Berlin. I can be reached via email at maggie.ec.jones [at] gmail.com.
My research areas include history, labour, and education. I use tools from these disciplines to better understand the persistence of socioeconomic inequalities between groups in North America. You can read more about my work on the economics of the Civil Rights Movement at our Green Book Project website.
I acknowledge with respect the Kanien’kehà:ka, who are the traditional custodians of the unceded lands and waters where I live and work.
