Precisely how effect handlers fit into the landscape of programming
language features is largely unexplored in the literature. The most
notable work in this area is due to \citet{ForsterKLP17}, who
relevant work in this area is due to \citet{ForsterKLP17}, who
investigate various relationships between effect handlers, delimited
control in the form of shift/reset, and monadic reflection using the
notions of typability-preserving macro-expressiveness and untyped
macro-expressiveness~\cite{ForsterKLP17,ForsterKLP19}. \citet{PirogPS19}

in an untyped setting all three are interdefinable, whereas in a
simply typed setting effect handlers cannot macro-express
either. \citet{PirogPS19} build upon the work of
\citeauthor{ForsterKLP17} as they show that with sufficient
polymorphism effect handlers and delimited control can simulate one
another.
The work of \citet{Shan04,Shan07} is related in spirit to the work
presented in this chapter. \citeauthor{Shan04} shows that static and
dynamic notions of delimited control are interdefinable in an untyped
setting. The work in this chapter has a similar flavour to
\citeauthor{Shan04}'s work as we can view deep handlers as a kind of
static control facility and shallow handlers as a kind of dynamic
control facility. In order to simulate dynamic control using static
control, \citeauthor{Shan04}'s translation makes use of recursive
delimited continuations, which allow the captured context and
continuation invocation context to coincide.
