Ananish Chaudhuri approaches a variety of economic issues and problems including:
- Pricing by firms
- Writing labour contracts between parties
- Marking voluntary contributions to charity,
- Addressing issues of environmental pollution,
- Providing micro-credit to small entrepreneurs,
- Resolving problems of coordination failure in organizations.
The book discusses how norm-driven behaviour can often lead to significantly different outcomes than those predicted by economic theories and these findings should in turn cause us to re-think how we approach economic analysis and policy.
Assuming no prior knowledge of economics and containing a variety of examples, this reader friendly volume will be perfect reading for people from a wide range of backgrounds including students and policy-makers. The book should appeal to economics undergraduates studying experimental economics, microeconomics or game theory as well as students in social psychology, organizational behaviour, management and other business related disciplines.
