Where Economists Meet In The Nation's Capital
Thursday, February 11
Kevin McCabe

George Mason University
"50 Years of Experimental Economics"
In 2002 Vernon Smith and Daniel Kahneman shared the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel for their work in integrating the experimental method into economics. This work began slowly in the late fifties and sixties, picked up speed in the seventies and eighties, and is now an important part of the practice of economics. This talk looks at some of the key advances in the experimental study of economic behavior, institutions, and markets, and how these advances are being used to improve economic understanding and practice.
