527a: Behavioral and
Institutional Economics (Syllabus)
Behavioral
economics incorporates insights from other social sciences, such as
psychology and sociology, into economic models, and attempts to explain
anomalies that defy standard economic analysis. Institutional economics is
the study of the evolution of economic organizations, laws, contracts, and
customs as part of a historical and continuing process of economic
development. Behavioral economics and institutional economics are naturally
treated together, since so much of the logic and design of economic institutions
has to do with complexities of human behavior.
