Sam Bowman

I am the editor of Works in Progress and Head of Publishing at Stripe. I am a member of the Board of Directors of the Mercatus Center.

I am particularly interested in cities and economic growth. Some pieces I have written include The Housing Theory of Everything, Foundations: Why Britain Has Stagnated, and Democracy is the Solution to Vetocracy. If you prefer podcasts, I appeared on the 80,000 Hours podcast here.

You can find more of my writing at my Substack.

I live in London with my family. I like cooking, grand strategy games, pop music, and history.

The best way to contact me is via email or on Twitter.
