Better Late than Nothing: Some Comments on Deaton (2009) and Heckman and Urzua (2009) (2010, background): “The proponents of randomization in the new development economics have argued persuasively in favor of doing multiple experiments (Duflo, 2004; Banerjee 2007, Banerjee and Duflo, 2008).”
Evaluation of biodiversity policy instruments: what works and what doesn't? (2012, background): “Additionally, studies from the impact evaluation literature have noted the possibility of a large publication bias, with the majority of published articles skewed towards finding the expected statistically significant effect (Duflo, 2004; Greenstone and Gayer, 2009; Ravallion, 2009).”
Growth Identification and Facilitation: The Role of the State in the Dynamics of Structural Change (2010, unknown): “The government can then implement policy to remove those binding constraints and use randomized controlled experiments to test the effects of releasing those constraints so as to ensure the effectiveness of scaling up those policies at the national level (Duflo 2004).”

Microsimulation as a tool for evaluating redistribution policies (2006, background): “To be sure, ex-post evaluations are also possible in economics and the field of 'impact evaluation' is growing quickly – see Duflo (2003).”
Can the West Save Africa (2008, unknown): “The theme of land titles improving incentives is an old one in Africa, as apparent from the 1938 statement cited in Table 5 (Lord Hailey, 1938, pp. 868, 876): “legal security ... can most effectively be guaranteed by registration.” The World Bank (2003b) expressed pretty much the same viewpoint, as ”
Infrastructure: A survey of recent and upcoming issues (2006, background): “This can be done at the project level (see Baker 2003 and Duflo 2003 for surveys), at the sector level (Torero and von Braun (2006) for a large set of country specific cases studies in telecoms) or at the macroeconomic level.”
