Bred mediedekning
En vitenskapelig artikkel av Evelina Gavrilova-Zoutman and Floris Zoutman har vakt stor interesse i internasjonale medier.
I løpet av de to siste ukene har Evelina Gavrilova-Zoutman and Floriz Zoutman, begge førsteamanuenser ved Institutt for foretaksøkonomi, fått mye oppmerksomhet.
Deres studie «Is Legal Pot Crippling Mexican Drug Trafficking Organizations? The Effect of Medical Marijuana Laws on US Crime» (skrevet sammen med Takuma Kamada) ble publisert i Economic Journal, og etter at prestisjetidsskriftet sendte ut en pressemelding på saken, har en rekke store nyhetsmedier dekket historien:
