- Does foreign aid harm political institutions (2015, methodology): “To avoid over-fitting, we restrict the number of lags used as internal instruments to two (see Roodman, 2009). Also, following the Monte Carlo evidence of Soto (2009), we rely on the conservative one-step estimator and report robust standard errors.”
- Foreign aid and governance in Africa (2016, unknown): “Conversely, our results are in line with Rajan & Subramanian (2007) on the negative linkage between aid and governance and (Brautigam & Knack (2004, p. 266) on the negative effect of foreign aid on African governance.”
- Development Aid and Economic Growth: A Positive Long-Run Relation (2009, unknown): “…capacity (Kanbur, 2000), crowding out private sector development (Bauer, 1976; Krauss, 1983), worsening bureaucratic quality (Knack & Rahman, 2007), weakening governance (Knack, 2000; Rajan & Subramanian, 2007), and lowering competitiveness through Dutch Disease effects (Rajan & Subramanian, 2005).”
- The Amplification Effect: Foreign Aid's Impact on Political Institutions (2013, background): “The second hypothesis is pessimistic (see, for instance, Bueno de Mesquita and Smith 2009; Smith 2008; Djankov, Montalvo, and Reynal-Querol 2008; Rajan and Subramanian 2007; Bräutigam and Knack 2004; Bauer 2000).”
- Reducing Child Undernutrition: Past Drivers and Priorities for the Post-MDG Era (2014, methodology): “The set of instruments used for testing are drawn from the numerous studies of the determinants and effects of economic growth (e.g., Bru ¨ ckner & Lederman, 2012; Dell, Jones, & Olken, 2012; Rajan & Subramanian, 2007).”
- Does Foreign Aid Improve Governance (2009, background): “Rajan and Subramanian (2007) demonstrate that in countries that receive more aid, governance-dependent industries grow relatively more slowly.”
- The curse of aid (2008, unknown): “Roodman (2007b) notices that if there are many instruments but the sample size is small, then there may be a downward bias in the two-step standard error and the Hansen test becomes a weak indicator of the validity of the model.”
- Property rights protection, corporate transparency, and growth (2009, unknown): “Blanchard and Kremer (1997), Levchenko (2007), and Rajan and Subramanian (2007) argue that the more complex the production structure, the easier it is to regulate transactions through contracts versus vertical integration and long-term relationships.”
