Dr. Nathan Lane is Associate Professor of Economics at the University of Oxford and Fellow at Merton College. His empirical research examines economic development at the intersection of political economy, trade, and industrial economics, with influential work appearing in The New York Times, The Economist, and U.S. Council of Economic Advisers reports.
His current research investigates industrial policy effectiveness, particularly in the global semiconductor sector, where he analyzes subsidy impacts, cross-border externalities, and learning-by-doing dynamics. Recent projects employ historical analysis, natural language processing, and economic modeling to understand policy rationales and impacts.
Publications consistently demonstrate innovative approaches to measuring industrial policies and evaluating their economic effects. The 2023-2025 work shows growing emphasis on semiconductor manufacturing policies, Korean industrialization case studies, and frameworks for analyzing contemporary subsidy programs.
Professor Lane co-founded the Industrial Policy Group research lab and serves as an affiliate of the CESifo research network. His work has been recognized through inclusion in policy reports and international media coverage.
