Morals and repugnance in markets, in Amsterdam, September 5.

 Theo Offerman writes:

"September 5, 2022, will be the inaugural workshop of the Amsterdam Center for Behavioral Change at CREED at the University of Amsterdam.

The workshop will focus on the theme of morals and repugnance in markets.

The speakers are: Sandro Ambuehl, Jana Friedrichsen, Klaus M. Schmidt, Florian H. Schneider, Nora Szech, Peter Werner and Andreas Ziegler. A detailed program is available on our website.

In the recent decades, the field of Behavioral Economics has generated important insights of the drivers of human behavior in economic decision making. The Amsterdam Center for Behavioral Change (ACBC) seeks to enhance our understanding of how these insights can be used to improve human behavior and economic outcomes. Founded in 2020, the ACBC encourages studies that aim to understand the effectiveness of behavioral interventions for societally relevant problems.
