LSE'S Craig Calhoun introduces Prof. Thaler to discuss Misbehaving:the making of behavioural economics. #LSEThaler pic.twitter.com/7sMAxsPMl1- @craigjcalhoun is there a unifying theory for seemingly irrelevant and curious factors that happen to really matter? #LSEThaler
- "We are not as smart as the smartest economist thinks he is" #LSEThaler
- Richard thaler@#LSEThaler "we are nicer than economists give us credit for", economics should be like engineering, building things that work
- "economics needs to become more like engineering and less like physics-- we need to build bridges you can walk across" @R_Thaler #lsethaler
- @R_Thaler behavioural economics should be called Kahneman and Tversky economics #LSEThaler @LSEBehavioural
Economics: Be more like engineering; less like physics. #LSEThaler pic.twitter.com/acENEjb3S2- 'The behavioural part of behavioural economics is mainly drawn from psychology but should be drawn from more disciplines' -Thaler #LSEThaler
- "Behavioural Science is more accurate" @R_Thaler #LSEThaler about "Behavioural Economics". I totally agree.
- "Keynes is on the list of the forbidden books at the Chicago University" lol #LSEThaler
- @R_Thaler economics was behavioural from Adam Smith through Keynes up to Samuelson #LSEThaler @LSEBehavioural https://twitter.com/LSEManagement/status/738066387973869569 …
- Economists from Adam Smith to Keynes were behavioural, before they became obsessed with equations @LSEpublicevents @R_Thaler #LSEThaler
"Economics was Behavioural up until Keynes and Samuelson. After then writing down equations changed that" #LSEThaler pic.twitter.com/FayseB168E- @R_Thaler Kahneman & Tversky prospect theory would not have been possible without expected utility theory #LSEThaler @LSEBehavioural
- @R_Thaler Herbert Simon and Thomas Schelling were early behavioural economists #LSEThaler @LSEBehavioural @LSEManagement
- Tom Schelling's focal point is a psychological idea and one could argue he is an early pioneer of behavioural economics #LSEThaler
- Rise of behavioural economics has been not untroubled: a bit like 'an albatross taking off' #LSEThaler
- Take off of Behavioural Economics was like the take off of an Albatross. Running for 200 miles & jumping off a cliff to take off. #LSEThaler
- A peer once said to Richard Thaler: "I specialise in optimisation and if you're right, what I am I suppose to do?" #LSEThaler
- "20 century economics is about to become obsolete" Godfather of behavioural economics at the LSE #LSEThaler
- On resistance from mainstream economists: unfounded fear, of a communist plot #LSEThaler
- Financial economists worry that if behavioural economists are right, there would be justification for regulating financial mkts.#LSEThaler
