Slides summarizing how to deal with causal identification using shift-share (Bartik) instruments, widely used in Economics of migration. I make a summary of the main ideas and suggestions proposed by the recent developments on this method proposed by Adão et al. (2019), Goldsmith-Pinkham et al. (2020), and Borusyak et al. (2022). You will also find links to other resources and the relevant implementation packages. This material will be updated over time and any suggestion is more than welcome.
