"Creating a better society by implementing matching theory in society"

"Auction theory that was in the limelight at the 2020 Nobel Prize in Economics. It is one of the theories representing the new field of microeconomics, "market design," which seeks to design a market in which traders can satisfy each other, rather than analyzing the existing market as in the past. The pioneer who won the Nobel Prize in Economics for "market design" is "matching theory" by Professor Alvin Roth and others. He talks with Professor Fuhito Kojima of the University of Tokyo Graduate School of Economics, who is a direct pupil and a former colleague at Stanford University, about the future brought about by the social implementation of economic theory."
