CESifo Area Conference on Behavioral Economics 2019
Munich
This was the ninth annual conference of the CESifo Area on Behavioral Economics and was organized jointly, once again, with the Collaborative Research Center “Rationality and Competition” (www.rationality-and-competition.de). Members from CESifo and CRC came together to present and discuss their ongoing research within the broad domain of behavioral and experimental economics and applications to other fields. The keynote lecturers were held by George Loewenstein (Carnegie Mellon) and Andrei Shleifer (Harvard).
