<li style="margin-bottom:12px;">A few months ago, Andrew Gelman <a href="http://andrewgelman.com/2013/01/10/that-controversial-claim-that-high-genetic-diversity-or-low-genetic-diversity-is-bad-for-the-economy/" target="_blank">wrote a blog post </a>on Ashraf and Galor&#8217;s <a title="The ‘Out of Africa’ Hypothesis, Human Genetic Diversity, and Comparative Economic Development" href="http://jasoncollins.blog/2013/02/the-out-of-africa-hypothesis-human-genetic-diversity-and-comparative-economic-development/" target="_blank">paper on genetic diversity and economic development </a>(the <a href="http://andrewgelman.com/2013/01/10/that-controversial-claim-that-high-genetic-diversity-or-low-genetic-diversity-is-bad-for-the-economy/#comments" target="_blank">comments</a> are worth reading).
