Sammendrag	The robust synthetic control method extends the classic synthetic control estimator by providing statistically valid uncertainty quantification and inference. Developed by Cattaneo, Feng and Titiunik (2021), it addresses a core limitation of the original approach — the lack of formal prediction intervals — making causal conclusions more defensible when only a single treated unit is observed.	Sensitivity analysis for causality assesses how robust a causal conclusion is to unobserved confounding. Rather than assuming all confounders are controlled, it asks: how strong would an unmeasured variable need to be to overturn the estimated effect? It is an indispensable robustness check after any quasi-experimental or observational causal analysis.
