| Lecture: 'What the market does for you - even if your preferences are incoherent' | |
|
|
The Centre for Economics and Ethics of the Faculty of Business and Economics cordially invites you to its general evening lecture on March 8, 2010.
Speaker is Robert Sugden, School of Economics, University of East Anglia (Norwich, UK).
Professor Sugden is known as an economist who has paid plenty of attention to the inevitably philosophical and ethical aspects of his research themes. Without being overly orthodox in his approach to economics, his work within both descriptive and normative economics can be said to be downright ground-breaking. The themes that he will be covering in Leuven reflect on both (positive) science (how do models within experimental economics function?) and (normative) ethics (does the market work for people with their imperfections?).
Auditorium 02.28, Faculty of Business and Economics, 19h30-21h30.
Participation is free of charge but registration is compulsory via the Centre for Economics and Ethics before March 2. |
