Sample selection is pervasive in applied economic studies. This paper develops semiparametric selection models that achieve point identification without relying on exclusion restrictions, an assumption long believed necessary for identification in semiparametric selection models. Our...

This study examines the causal impact of PM2.5 air pollution exposure on premature mortality in Southern European cities from 2010 to 2018. To address endogeneity, we leverage local variations in rainfall as a source of random variation in PM2.5 exposure. Using the Two-Sample Two-Stage Least...
